Man United and Liverpool did not score goals, and the leader of the Premier League changed again

Liverpool hosted Manchester United in the final match of the 17th round of the English Premier League. The teams approached this encounter with contrasting momentum. The "Red Devils" suffered a midweek defeat to Bayern Munich, leading to their elimination from European competitions, while Liverpool held the top spot in the league. However, Arsenal's earlier victory meant that for Liverpool to remain at the summit, they needed to defeat United in this game.

The first half was dominated by the hosts, yet the score remained unaltered. Van Dijk had an excellent chance from a corner, but Onana managed his strike well. United gained confidence after the break, creating a few dangerous moments, but Alisson also confidently guarded his goal.

It's worth noting that Liverpool certainly deserved to win, evidenced by their overwhelming advantage in shots (34:6) and the Expected Goals (xG) ratio, which amounted to 2.66.
