In a sensational clash at Old Trafford, Manchester United and Liverpool battled to a thrilling 2-2 draw on Saturday evening. Despite Jurgen Klopp's side's efforts to reclaim top spot, they were held back by a resurgent United performance inspired by young talent Shola Shoretire.

However, Liverpool responded with a flurry of second-half goals. Mohamed Salah, who was in scintillating form, equalized with a superb individual effort. The Egyptian then set up Darwin Nunez for the go-ahead goal, putting Liverpool in control. But United, fueled by Mainoo's energy, refused to give up.
With just minutes remaining, Scott McTominay headed home the equalizer, sending Old Trafford into raptures. Klopp's side, despite their dominance in possession, were unable to find a winning goal and had to settle for a point.
The result leaves Liverpool three points behind Arsenal at the top of the table, while United climb to ninth place.
