Trent Alexander-Arnold cancelled out Erling Haaland’s 50th Premier League goal as Liverpool grabbed a point against champions and title rivals Manchester City on Saturday. The England international struck 10 minutes from the end of a tight encounter at the Etihad Stadium after Haaland’s landmark strike looked like extending City’s record home winning run. City had won their previous 23 games on home turf in all competitions, a running dating back to a visit from Everton on New Year’s Eve last December. Alexander-Arnold’s late equaliser also spared the blushes of goalkeeper Alisson Becker, who had a day to forget having gifted Haaland his opener and committed several other errors. Haaland had shown no mercy as he netted in the 27th minute, reaching his half-century of goals in the competition in just his 48th appearance, a new record. Alisson, who was in goal for Brazil in their controversial game against Argentina in Rio on Wednesday, looked sluggish from the start. He presented Phil Foden with an early opportunity when he gave the ball away but escaped as the England midfielder shot tamely. At the other end, Ederson palmed away a Darwin Nunez header but Alisson had another worrying moment when he dithered on a back pass and had to scramble clear under pressure from Haaland. Haaland made sure he was punished when he blundered again. Firstly Alisson slipped as he attempted to launch the ball upfield and found only Nathan Ake, who charged through some weak challenges to feed Haaland. The Norwegian scuffed his shot slightly but it was still too powerful for Alisson, whose weak hand to could not prevent it finding the bottom corner. Nunez hit the side-netting from a tight angle as Liverpool responded but the visitors were unable to consistently trouble City. The champions threatened again before the break but this time Alisson did well to push away a low effort from Foden. City went close again after the restart when Julian Alvarez spurned the chance by blazing over after good work by Jeremy Doku. Liverpool struggled to muster a meaningful threat with Virgil Van Dijk’s header from a corner not troubling Ederson. Alisson was given a major reprieve after another howler. The Brazilian spilled the ball from a corner under little obvious pressure and Ruben Dias poked in but the goal was disallowed for a foul by Manuel Akanji. Liverpool made the most of the let-off to equalise on 80 minutes with Alexander-Arnold’s fine strike. Mohamed Salah laid off on the edge of the box and the England international took a touch before drilling a shot across goal into the bottom corner. He celebrated by putting a finger to his lips in front of the City fans. City applied plenty of late pressure with Alisson, who appeared injured, struggling to clear his lines. Haaland almost grabbed a winner in the eighth and final minute of stoppage time but his glancing header flew narrowly wide.

Harry Maguire laughed off his Hampden Park hounding as a “little bit of banter” as the under-fire defender said he can cope with pressure from the stands and on his England place. Little more than two years ago, the centre-back was an ever-present for Manchester United and earned a place in the Euros team of the tournament after helping Gareth Southgate’s side reach the final. But a drop in form and club game time, including being replaced as United captain, has led pressure and criticism to ratchet up on Maguire to a point that his international manager snapped following Tuesday’s 3-1 friendly win against Scotland. Furious Southgate said the treatment of Maguire is “ridiculous”, “a joke” and “beyond anything I’ve ever seen” – a narrative that he believes led to home fans goading him mercilessly in Glasgow. Every pass Maguire made was met by an ironic cheer after being brought on as a half-time substitute at Hampden Park. “Well, it pretty much takes the pressure away from my team-mates and puts it all on myself,” Maguire said. “It makes them play better, for sure. “It is a little bit of banter and it is a hostile environment, coming away to Scotland. “We wanted to put on a performance and we have dominated from start to finish. We have given them a goal, which is a bit unfortunate you could say. “But, yes, it was a great reaction from us all. We stayed calm, we stayed composed. I think it was a hostile environment. “We knew coming here, when you hear the national anthem and the way they disrespect that, we knew it would be hostile and in the second half I got most of it. “I am happy to go with that, don’t worry about that.” Maguire was touched by the away support’s backing in Glasgow as Scottish fans attempted to rattle him. “No, I would not say I am a person who struggles with pressure mentally,” Maguire said. “I have been through a lot in the last couple of years and I have been Manchester United captain for nearly four years. “You take a huge lot of responsibility and everything that comes with it and that is a lot of bad as well as good. “But it was a huge honour and of course it is a hostile environment here, which is how I described it, and they piled pressure on myself. I would not say I am used to it but I can deal with it.” Maguire is grateful for the backing of Southgate, whose faith he believes he repaid with his performances in Scotland and away to Ukraine when he made his first start of the season on Saturday. The 30-year-old brushed aside suggestions he was rusty but wants the rhythm back of playing week in, week out, saying he is confident that “the luck will turn” if he keeps working hard. Maguire now turns his attention to the fight for his place at United, where a lack of minutes could put his place at Euro 2024 in jeopardy – something he says is “too far away” to worry about. West Ham did offer him a route to regular action in the summer but the defender said “we didn’t come to an agreement” and United were happy for him to stay. “Of course, my England career is a big priority,” he added. “And so is my club career. “I considered everything and I know, at the moment, when I have not started a game in the first four games of the season, the story comes to me. “I finished off last season with two very strong performances for England and I have played in all five matches to help put us where we are in qualifying, so I need to keep performing when I get chosen. “Listen, at club football, I want to play games, I want to play football. “The first four weeks were hard because it was one game a week and the manager didn’t select me but we have lots of games coming up now and I am sure I will play lots of games.” Read More Charity boss speaks out over ‘traumatic’ encounter with royal aide Ukraine war’s heaviest fight rages in east - follow live Great Britain make winning start with Davis Cup success against Australia That is not my story – Joe Marler and Danny Cipriani differ on rugby’s mavericks Ben Stokes apologises to Jason Roy after breaking his England ODI record

What the papers say Harry Kane will stay at Tottenham if no deal has been done before the club’s Premier League opener against Brentford.

Luton have battled hard in their maiden Premier League season, and currently sit outside the relegation zone on goal difference, but United will expect to beat the Hatters at home and any other result will only increase the heat heading into the international break.
