United’s best chance on xG was a 27th minute one for Rashford (which he shot straight at Alisson).

Liverpool could’ve scored more- Nunez and Konate both missed decent opportunities, as did Andy Robertson. But they were very clinical in the second half, with almost every attempt turning into a goal!
