After the game, Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson spoke about his thoughts on the game in an official interview with the club.

Indeed, Manchester United's defence was excellent in this game. They have adopted a strategy of dense defence that has made it difficult for Liverpool's attacking players to find their way through. Liverpool, despite having a high percentage of possession, struggled to create dangerous attacking chances against United's iron bucket formation.
Alisson believes that against such a defensive powerhouse, Liverpool need to be more calm when holding the ball. "We can't rush things and we need to be patient and look for opportunities," he said. At the same time, we need to pay more attention to detail and not let our opponents take advantage of our mistakes to counter-attack. ”
In addition to defending, Arisson also spoke about Liverpool's performance in attack. 'We have some chances in attack but we need to deal with them more calmly,' he said. Sometimes we rush too much and miss a chance to score. ”
For Liverpool, the game was unwinnable, but it was not without its gains. "This game has shown us where we are lacking and what we need to improve," said Alisson. We will work harder in the next races to achieve better results. ”
Overall, it was a tight matchup with both sides having a chance to win. Alisson believes Liverpool need to be more calm and meticulous in possession and attack to better cope with the challenges of strong teams. Although they failed to win, Liverpool also gained valuable experience and lessons from this game.
For the fans, this game is undoubtedly a feast for the eyes. The wonderful performances and fierce confrontations of the players on both sides on the field made the fans enthusiastic. Despite failing to score and win, this game is still a great game to watch.
In the coming competitions, Liverpool will continue to work hard to improve their shortcomings and move towards higher results. For the fans, they are looking forward to Liverpool's better performances and better performances in the upcoming games.
