United hold Liverpool to Anfield stalemate
THE eagerly-anticipated Premier League clash between old rivals Liverpool and Manchester United failed to live up to expectations in a drab 0-0 draw at Anfield.
Liverpool improved in the second half but visiting keeper David de Gea made two outstanding saves to earn United a point, although the visitors rarely threatened themselves.
Bookmakers reacted by pushing Liverpool out to 9-2 to win the Premier League and United were kept at 14-1.
