Today is a very interesting matchday... Man U did not lose to Liverpool, although they could even win, but they had the same bad luck as in the last match against Chelsea... But Liverpool disappointingly missed out on the top spot in the EPL... And Chelsea could not beat Sheffield, which is in last place in the standings...

Games have been great. Liverpool had 20 shots on goal, but managed to score only 2 goals and one more on penalties, but Manchester seems to have made only 4 shots on goal, half of which were goals. In general, Liverpool yesterday created chances for 3-4 games, but realize them normally do not get.
Chelsea as usual is extremely unstable, after they led 2:1 Pocchetino for some reason decided to play from the defense and as a result Chelsea missed the victory. Why Pocchetino decided to do so is the main mystery of this match, because even after his second goal Chelsea controlled the game and could calmly play further and score, rather than sit down the whole team in defense.

To straighten things out a bit, Liverpool made 28 attempts but only 7 of them were on target, and 2 of them became goals (one of which was through the penalty spot). In fact, there was nothing wrong in Liverpool's game, they played well, it was just that several times they made mistakes in the back line which could not anticipate the movements of the Manchester United players so they had to receive 2 goals in this match.

This must be disappointing for them, because apart from having to draw, they also lost their position at the top of the standings which had to be taken over by Arsenal even though in terms of points they actually have the same points. However, they still had to lose their previous 2 points because in this match they couldn't get full points. I saw the look of disappointment on their coach's face, because maybe this was a result they really didn't want even though they could still get 1 point.

This result makes us even more curious about who will be champions in the Premier League, it's really interesting.
