Jurgen Klopp makes brutal Arsenal comment after Liverpool draw vs Man Utd | Football | Sport

Liverpool were in complete control at half-time against a United team that had not managed a single shot on goal in the first 45 minutes. Luis Diaz converted from a corner to put the visitors in front in Manchester.

But brilliant goals from Bruno Fernandes and Kobbie Mainoo, taking advantage of poor Liverpool defending, sent Old Trafford into a frenzy and put United in the ascendancy. The Reds rescued a late draw through Mohamed Salah from the penalty spot after Harvey Elliott had been tripped by Aaron Wan-Bissaka.

Yet Liverpool still had enough chances to win the match comfortably. And Klopp admits their title rivals Arsenal, who have won 10 of their 11 league matches in 2024 after a 3-0 thrashing of Brighton on Saturday night, should beat United at the same stadium on May 11.

Klopp conceded post-match: « Arsenal is a good football team and if [United] play like they did today, Arsenal will win that game, I’m 100 per cent sure. I’m really sorry to say that but this is a matter of fact.

« We should’ve won both games [in the league and FA Cup vs United] and didn’t. That’s our fault. In all the time I’ve been here, we never dominated United like we did in these two games – but we didn’t win them.
