Liverpool Drops Points as Manchester United Forces 2-2 Draw at Anfield

In a thrilling encounter at Anfield on Sunday, Liverpool, under manager Arne Slot, dropped crucial points as Manchester United, now led by Amorim, fought back to earn a 2-2 draw in a gripping Premier League clash.

After a goalless first half, the visitors took the lead in the 52nd minute, with Lisandro Martinez scoring to give Manchester United the advantage.

Liverpool, who had been on top for most of the match, quickly responded with Cody Gakpo finding the back of the net in the 59th minute, bringing the game level at 1-1.

The Reds thought they had secured all three points when Mohamed Salah coolly slotted a penalty past Unitedโ€™s goalkeeper in the 70th minute, putting Liverpool ahead 2-1.

However, just when it seemed like Slotโ€™s side would seal the victory, United stunned the home crowd.

In the 80th minute, Amad Diallo equalized for the visitors, securing a hard-earned point for Amorimโ€™s men.

Despite their dominance, Liverpool couldnโ€™t hold onto their lead, and Manchester Unitedโ€™s resilience ensured that they left Anfield with a valuable point.

The result leaves Liverpool as league leaders, but the draw marks a missed opportunity to extend their advantage at the top.
