Still, the Reds soon rallied with Cody Gakpo equalizing on the hour mark and Mohamed Salah slotting home a penalty after Matthijs de Ligt was penalized for handball.<br /><br />However, Diallo provided the visitors with the final sting in the tail after tapping in Alejandro Garnacho's cross, securing a point that will encourage Ruben Amorim.<br /><br />The showdown was played out in sheets of icy rain and the stormy weather eventually took a visible toll on the venue, as shown in videos on social media.<br /><br />One clip posted on X showed several leaks cascading down from the top of the Anfield Road Stand, with home supporters seemingly bearing the brunt.<br /><br />'Leaky Anfield,' the user said, accompanied by an eyes emoji.<br /><br />The leaks sprang in the section above United's traveling contingent, who were amassed in the lower tie. In another video shared on X, a group of Red Devils supporters took pleasure in cheekily singing 'Anfield's falling'.<br /><br />From the angle, it was not possible to tell whether they were also dripped on. <br /><br />The Met Office had issued an amber warning in Merseyside, warning the conditions would 'likely lead to disruption to transport and some other services'.<br /><br />But the city's Ground Safety Advisory Group ultimately decided that the game would go ahead despite the risk of ice after meeting twice on Sunday morning.<br /><br />The snow eventually gave way to driving rain during the match and several large puddles were spotted around the ground, including in the press area.<br /><br />The Anfield Road Stand was redeveloped in early 2024 at the cost of around £100million, taking the overall capacity of the stadium to 61,276.<br /><br />United, of course, are no strangers to enduring leaks of their own with the decrepit state of Old Trafford late bare on several occasions during storms.<br /><br />Last season, as United sank to a 1-0 defeat by Arsenal, a fierce thunderstorm hit the 114-year-old stadium, causing water to run down the stands.<br /><br />The club is weighing up plans to build a new stadium, christened the 'Wembley of the North', but a final decision on the future of Old Trafford has not been made.<br /><br />Post-match, Liverpool boss Arne Slot admitted the draw with United felt like 'two points dropped', saying: 'I think many people, what stays in their head for a long time is what happens in the end and that was a big chance for [Harry] Maguire, of course.<br /><br />'But what we tend to forget is two minutes before, Virgil [van Dijk] had maybe such a big chance as he had to make it 3-2 for us. In the end, it was a difficult game.'
