Liverpool's best and worst players in 1-1 draw with Man City

A second-half penalty from Alexis Mac Allister ensured Jurgen Klopp's final Premier League clash with Manchester City ended with honours even, but it could have been so much more for Liverpool.

After tricky opening 15-20 minutes, the Reds put in a stunning showing at Anfield, creating 2.46xG worth of chances in comparison to Man City's 1.61, and will perhaps be disappointed they couldn't convert those opportunities into three points, especially given Arsenal shot to the top of the table on Saturday after their win over Brentford.
