talkSPORT claims the incident occurred in the tunnel after the full-time whistle.
United dug deep to earn a point on Merseyside, leaving Liverpool feeling deeply frustrated.
The hosts had an incredible 34 shots on goal compared to United’s six.
And Erik ten Hag was left beaming at full-time despite seeing Diogo Dalot sent off late on for dissent.
However, tensions boiled over after the final whistle as Liverpool lost their hold on top spot to Arsenal, who beat Brighton 2-0 earlier today.
The Reds are now joint-second with Aston Villa after Unai Emery’s men clinched a late winner at Brentford.
And it reportedly got too much for Liverpool captain Van Dijk to take.
The Dutchman is said to have approached United goalkeeper Onana in the tunnel as the players made their way to their repective dressing rooms.

It’s alleged Van Dijk then said to his opponent: “Because of you we only played a half hour game.”
However, Onana is said to have delivered the perfect response.
Rather than rising to the remark, the Cameroon star simply smiled back at Van Dijk before heading off with his United pals.
