Chelsea earned a draw at Anfield to continue a goalless run of matches against Liverpool and remain in 10th place in the Premier League. Kai Havertz saw his goal ruled out after three minutes due to an unexpected offside call, but neither side could find the net again as they struggled to thrill.
Mykhailo Mudryk made his debut for the Blues and showed some lively moments and even had an opportunity to hand Chelsea the lead after he danced through Liverpool's defence with both guile and pace, as he quelled Liverpool's second half momentum. Graham Potter's side were probably the more threatening over the course of 90 minutes, but neither side were able to convince that they should be higher in the league. The Blues boss was keen to take the positives however.
He said: “We’re happy with the performance of the team, happy with the energy, spirit and discipline we had. It’s never easy coming here because of Liverpool’s quality and Anfield. So we take the point, we accept it, and we move forward in a positive way.”
