Jurgen Klopp is not pleased following Sunday afternoon’s encounter between his Liverpool side and Manchester United, with a late penalty from Mohamed Salah ensuring the points were shared at Old Trafford.
After United scored two incredible goals to even the game before Salah converted a penalty kick, Klopp’s team had the advantage in the first half. Late goals have been a recurrent trend for United this season, particularly in close games. With seven league games remaining, Liverpool will view the draw as a big two-point loss as they were unable to secure the top spot in the Premier League. When Arsenal visits Old Trafford later this season, Klopp, who was unimpressed with what he saw from the hosts, confessed after the game that he doesn’t think United will help them in the championship fight.
Arsenal is a competitive soccer team. Arsenal will win the match if Man United performs as they did today, according to Klopp, as reported by Fabrizio Romano. “I am very certain of that,” he continued.
After their five head-to-head meetings since Ten Hag’s appointment in 2022, Klopp has only defeated the Dutchman once, as evidenced by Sunday’s 2-2 tie. Moreover, in the three matches that they have played this season, the German manager has not prevailed. Despite the fact that Arsenal hasn’t triumphed at Old Trafford since 2020, Mikel Arteta’s team is currently having their best run of the season, thus they will go to Manchester as the favorites. Even though United most likely won’t be making it into the Champions League for the following season, they will still want to maintain some kind of momentum in front of a potential FA Cup final.
Liverpool trails Arsenal in the Premier League on goal differential after United crushed their chances of winning the FA Cup last month.
