What Luis Diaz did moments after Liverpool's draw with Man City speaks volumes

What Luis Diaz did moments after Liverpool’s draw against Manchester City speaks volumes.

The Reds welcomed City to Anfield on Sunday as they looked to regain top spot from Arsenal.

Jurgen Klopp’s men found themselves 1-0 after a clever routine was finished off by John Stones in the 23rd minute.

In the second half, Liverpool drew level through a penalty by Alexis Mac Allister with 50 minutes on the clock.

Eventually, the match ended level as Arsenal remained top of the Premier League table on goal difference.

Meanwhile, City remain one point behind Liverpool in third place.

However, the Reds will be left disappointed by their missed chances, especially Diaz.

The Colombian squandered two huge chances including a one-on-one against City’s substitute goalkeeper Stefan Ortega after being played through by Mohamed Salah.

After the final whistle, a video showed a dejected Diaz walking around the Anfield turf as he was consoled by his teammates.

Speaking after the match, Reds boss Klopp spoke about this season’s scintillating Premier League title race.

He said: “We have 10 games to play, so obviously nothing is decided. There are plenty of games. The next one in the league is Brighton at home, traditionally it is not our favourite opponent. It is not that we think, ‘Thank God it’s Brighton.’

“They play really good football and that is a tough game for us. At one point we play Tottenham here, we have to go to Aston Villa and stuff like this. City play Arsenal, play Tottenham and Aston Villa as well.”

He added: “So many teams are fighting, so much quality. The only thing I need for the moment, I would prefer to have 30 points between us and all the other things, but the realistic thing is are we really in that race from a performance point of view?

“Today I saw a team that is in the right position, so now let’s see what we can do.”

Liverpool will take on Sparta Prague in the Europa League on Thursday before playing Manchester United in the FA Cup on Sunday.
