Failing to Break the Premier League Streak Record, Liverpool vs Man United Draws

DBasia.news –  Liverpool’s best start record in the English League failed to break when they traveled to Manchester United at Old Trafford. They also had to reap disappointment when competing against Manchester United, Sunday (10/20). As Liverpool was only able to achieve a 1-1 draw against Manchester United with the provision of eight consecutive wins.

Throughout acting in the highest caste of English football competition, Liverpool’s best start was eight consecutive wins. The record was carved in the 1990-91 season. In succession, they conquered Sheffield United, Nottingham Forest, Aston Villa, Wimbledon, Manchester United, Everton, Sunderland and Derby County.

On October 5, Liverpool were able to match the record thanks to the victory over Leicester City. Previously, they also conquered Norwich City, Southampton, Arsenal, Burnley, Newcastle United, Chelsea and Sheffield United.

Jurgen Klopp’s team has the potential to set a new record when visiting Old Trafford, October 20, 2019. However, facing Manchester United who was unstable, they were only able to reap a draw. They even fell behind in the first half and only equalized just five minutes before the fight was over.

The results of the match against Manchester United at Old Trafford reminded Liverpool of the 1990-91 season. At that time too, their series of victories was stopped by a 1-1 draw at home to the opponent. The team that stopped the Reds was Norwich City.

The similarity with the 1990-91 season has caused anxiety for Liverpool fans. They certainly do not want the memory of that season to repeat itself. The reason is, despite being able to record a victory in the first eight weeks, the Reds has failed to win. In the last week, they only finished second. Arsenal won the title that season.
