A game that could easily have been delayed by snow turned into one of the best derbies between two of England's biggest clubs.
Liverpool was a big favorite, but Manchester United played perhaps the best match this season - in the end, after four goals and many chances, the match at "Anfield" ended 2:2.
The "Devils" were the first to take the lead, the Premier League leader reversed, but it seems that the final result was the most realistic in the end.
Arne Slot's team missed the chance to further escape Arsenal at the top, while this match will be a big motivation for Ruben Amorim's men after four straight defeats.
Liverpool could have taken the lead in the first half, after the chances of Cody Gakpo and Alexis McAllister, United could also have done it through Amad Diallo and Rasmus Hoylund, but the nets on the frozen "Enfid" did not shake.
And then everything exploded in the sequel - After a great assist from Bruno Fernandes, Lisandro Martines "knocked" the ball under the crossbar. After five matches, the "Devils" scored at "Anfield" and took a 1:0 lead.
The leader looked confused in those moments, it seemed that he had no answer, but he arrived, as practically every time this season - Cody Gakpo masterfully "kicked out" Matijs de Licht and tied the game at 1:1 with a great shot..
Slot didn't give up the already planned introduction of two strikers, so Diogo Žota and Darvin Nunes entered the game, and Liverpool continued to attack... Out of everything, a new goal came from the penalty spot.
McAllister shot with his head, De Licht recklessly played with his hand, and referee Michael Oliver, with the help of VAR, pointed to the white spot - in the 70th minute from the penalty spot, Salah made no mistake, it was his 18th goal in the Premier League this season.
With that goal, the Egyptian master tied with Thierry Henry in the seventh place of the best scorers in the history of the Premier League, and at the same time became the first footballer ever with the performance of 18 goals and 13 assists after 19 rounds of the English championship.
So far, the best performance was also played by "Reds" Luis Suarez with 23 goals and seven set goals.
However, even that did not "kill" Ruben Amorim's team - just ten minutes later, they managed to come back once again.
Trent Aleksander Arnold didn't have his evening, and it passed through his side Alejandro Garnaćo found Amado Dialo, who equalized at 2:2. United's great hope also scored last season against its biggest rival.
There were chances until the end - on one side, Žota and Bradley were able to score, on the other, Harry Maguire missed the chance of the match, but the result did not change.
