Man Utd 0-0 Liverpool: Three Reasons Why The Reds Failed To Win At Old Trafford 

#3 Firmino’s injury

Firmino's injury hampered Liverpool's chances.

Firmino injured his right ankle during the first half of the stalemate. He had to leave Old Trafford on crutches. He was substituted in the 31st minute and Liverpool didn’t look like the same team it was till that time. There was no understanding among Salah, Mane, and Sturridge after Firmino left the field.

There was a dip in the performance levels as Firmino is seen as the receiver in this Liverpool team. He collects the ball and then sprays it wide for Salah and Mane to have a run at the opposition. Liverpool missed it dearly throughout the match.

Firmino has taken part in all 36 games that Liverpool have played this season and his injury is a major concern for Klopp going into the busy end of the season. Next up for Liverpool is Watford at home and then Everton away. The title race is still in Liverpool’s hands but dropping points regularly will soon take its toll on their title chances.
