Liverpool 0-0 Manchester United; Match Report; How It Happened

Liverpool and Manchester United held each other to a goalless draw in an uneventful stalemate on a
disappointing night at Anfield in the Premier League.

Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool would have drawn level on points with leaders Manchester City if they have won today to make it a fifth successive Premier League victory, but he was however subdued by a classic Jose Mourinho performance of defensive organisation.

United did not allow Liverpool to really build the
momentum and intensity that has characterised their game this season, with Jose Mourinho's limited
attacking ambitions ensured chances were at a premium.

David De gea made two fine second-half saves from  Emre Can and Philippe Coutinho to deny Liverpool.

Howver , United's best chance also came in the second half, but the unmarked Zlatan Ibrahimovic
directed Paul Pogba's cross off target.

The draw means Mourinho and Manchester United stays seventh and Liverpool Fourth.
