Diogo Dalot said Man United's players were motivated to draw with Liverpool after criticism from Ruben Amorim that he does not have enough leaders.

The Netherlands international, 23, was booed off the pitch by some United fans after being substituted in the first half of last Monday night's 2-0 defeat to Newcastle United at Old Trafford. He was replaced by Kobbie Mainoo with just 33 minutes played.

Trent Alexander-Arnold’s cross ricocheted off Alexis Mac Allister’s head onto De Ligt’s arm, which was deemed by VAR to be in an unnatural position. The Dutchman also allowed his compatriot Gakpo to cut inside far too easily for his goal just before the hour mark and so it’s not unfair to say that both goals are linked to the 25-year-old.
