fell and the latter also together on the grass, and had to be replaced even when United had to burn all their three substitutions before the pausvilan. However, notable to Lingard, during his less than 20 minutes on the pitch, had to stand for halvlekens best scoring opportunity. Liverpoolmålvakten Alisson was, however, engelsmannens the neutral position and got the ball away with a well-balanced paw.
Skadeeländet affected not only United, but also guests from Merseyside, it may be that they “only” had to replace an injured Roberto Firmino before half-time.
Add to Unitedanfallaren Marcus Rashford and Liverpoolbacken Andy Robertson also had noticeably hurt on the pitch – in an almost mocking unfortunate first half.
Bot, bettering, fresher legs and more football in the second half?
Hmmm. Not directly.

For Liverpool’s part, it meant scoreless result is a repossessed serieledning from Manchester City.
For United’s part one, for the moment, lost the Champions League spot to Arsenal, who defeated Southampton 2-0.
All of this with eleven games left to play of the Premier League.
