Amad Diallo's late intervention secured a dramatic 2-2 draw for Manchester United against Liverpool at Anfield in the Premier League. The match began with Liverpool dominating as they aimed to restore their eight-point cushion at the top of the table.
On the other hand, United sought crucial points to distance themselves from relegation concerns under Ruben Amorim.
The first half was evenly contested, with both teams creating opportunities but failing to convert. Cody Gakpo, Alexis Mac Allister, and Rasmus Hojlund came close but couldn't break the deadlock. The game sparked into life in the second half when Lisandro Martinez scored a stunning goal from a tight angle, giving United the lead.
However, Liverpool responded swiftly, with Gakpo equalizing just before the hour mark. Moments later, a penalty awarded for Matthijs de Ligt's handball allowed Mohamed Salah to put Liverpool ahead.
However, United pushed for a response.
Their persistence paid off when Amad Diallo darted past Andy Robertson to slot home the equaliser with ten minutes remaining.
Both teams pressed for a winner in the closing stages, with Harry Maguire nearly sealing it for United in added time, but his effort fell short.
