Manchester United secured a hard-fought 2-2 draw against Premier League leader Liverpool with a late equalizer by Amad Diallo. Diallo capitalized on Alejandro Garnacho's cross in the 80th minute at Anfield, cancelling out Mohamed Salah's penalty that had put Liverpool in the lead.

The draw saw United move up to 13th place in the standings, while Liverpool missed the opportunity to widen the gap at the top. The match showcased the competitive nature between the two historic clubs, with Liverpool aiming to equal United's record of 20 league titles this season.
