Manchester United once again gave a headache to one of the three teams in the race for the Premier League title. This time it was Liverpool who dropped two points against a Red Devils side who are often a tough nut to crack in big games.
Although the Old Trafford outfit are not in their best form of the season, with the hopes of their fans resting on the bright future they have ahead of them, with young players who have stepped up and shown the potential they have, such as Alejandro Garnacho, Kobbie Mainoo, Amat Diallo and Willy Kambwala. The latter, just 19 years old, played the full 90 minutes against the Reds and played a key role in stopping Salah and Co.
Dutch coach Erik ten Hag went to the press conference after holding Klopp's team to a draw and did not hesitate to praise the game of the Red Devils youth player, who has already made eight official appearances this season with the first team, two of them as a starter.
"We were convinced (Kambwala) could do the job and he has done brilliant. I am very pleased, very happy and it is another signal and message of the future of Manchester United. This team, the squad has high potential and if we get more players available, especially in the backline ... then the future will be very good," he told reporters.
