Liverpool entertained Leeds United at Anfield earlier tonight as they hoped to secure a good result at home in the Premier League. The Reds made a dominant start to the game but were held to a scoreless draw at the half-time break.<\/p>\n

Arne Slot\u2019s men pushed on in search of the winning goal in the second 45 minutes but were held to a lackluster 0-0 draw at Merseyside.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s take a look at how each Liverpool<\/a> player fared during the clash against the Whites.<\/p>\n

GK: Alisson Becker \u2013 6.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He made a couple of solid saves at the back but was a bit careless with his passing.<\/p>\n

RB: Conor Bradley \u2013 6.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bradley worked his socks off at both ends of the field.<\/p>\n

CB: Ibrahima Konate \u2013 8\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He dealt with the danger when he could and won his fair share of aerial duels.<\/p>\n

CB: Virgil Van Dijk \u2013 7\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Van Dijk performed his defensive duties well and was a strong presence in the air.<\/p>\n

LB: Andy Robertson \u2013 6.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He made two inviting chances going forward and was replaced after the hour mark.<\/p>\n

CM: Ryan Gravenberch \u2013 7\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gravenberch was a positive influence at both ends of the field.<\/p>\n

CM: Curtis Jones \u2013 7\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He made two decent chances in the final third and came back to defend when he could.<\/p>\n

RW: Jeremie Frimpong \u2013 7\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Frimpong used his pace well at times to get to the byline, but failed to make a difference in the final third.<\/p>\n

CAM: Dominik Szoboszlai \u2013 7\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He engineered a few good chances for others around him, but lacked quality in front of the opponent\u2019s goal.<\/p>\n

LW: Florian Wirtz \u2013 6.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wirtz was not shy of having a strike at goal and was substituted in the 65th minute.<\/p>\n

ST: Hugo Ekitike \u2013 6.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He caused a few headaches for his marker but failed to register a goal.<\/p>\n

Substitutes:<\/strong><\/p>\n

He failed to make a difference up top after coming off the bench.<\/p>\n

RW: Federico Chiesa \u2013 6\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Chiesa struggled to influence the game.<\/p>\n
