Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp admitted to having mixed emotions on Sunday.

The German was an upset figure on the sideline for most of his team's 2-2 draw against Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Despite dominating the game in possession and shots, Klopp knew his team did drop two points in the title race.

Post-game, he told reporters: “It's obviously mixed. [I am] happy with a lot of parts of the game. Being 1-0 up at Old Trafford and having a 15-0 shooting stat is incredible.

“It says to me immediately again there is probably something around the finishing, it was either exceptional goalkeeping – which was the case for one situation for Dom Szoboszlai, [which] was an incredible save – but besides that we should and could have been calmer and clearer in moments. It's fine, you are 1-0 up now and so still fine.

“Come outside [for the second half] and still controlling the game and then we gave the ball away. These mistakes happened before and will happen after today as well, so that is not a problem. First you have to use it like Bruno did, it was a pretty exceptional finish. In this mood lift in the stadium, atmosphere lifted in the stadium, they pretty much scored the second and then we controlled the game again.

“We got the penalty and scored an equalizer – and could have scored more before or after. We played really good in so many moments and we had a five- or 10-minute period where they score.

“For the second goal, we don't push up properly and that's why they find him between the lines, he can turn and then in the end it ends up with an incredible finish as well. After that, we were again in charge. Now you can say if we had that much of a dominance for long parts we should win the game – yes, that's true – but you all are long enough in football that it doesn't mean you will win.

“It just means you should and that is obviously different very often to the final scoreline. Two-two, I am not over the moon about it, I don't think it's the best result I've ever seen, but I am fine. Now we recover and play Atalanta in the Europa League."
