Liverpool lost their lead in the Premier League title race on Sunday, but manager Jurgen Klopp insists their 2-2 draw at Manchester United was not a case of two points dropped.
Mohamed Salah's 84th-minute penalty ensured that the Reds got a point from the game, after falling behind courtesy of a second-half turnaround by the hosts spurred on by goals from Bruno Fernandes and Kobbie Mainoo.
But Klopp rejected the criticism after the final whistle, even though the point means that they remain behind Arsenal in the race for the top-flight crown this season.
The German manager told Sky Sports: 'We had big chances before and after they scored.
'That's now the situation. It's a point at Manchester United, I know people see it as two points lost.
