Jeremy Doku constantly causes problems for the Liverpool defense

Man City’s arrival of Doku and Ake allowed them to launch constant attacks down the right flank. However, a mistake by one player resulted in the first dangerous ball of the game. Alisson Becker missed a pass in the eleventh minute, which gave Phil Foden the opportunity to score, but the Englishman was unable to take advantage of it.

Shortly after, Liverpool caused concern for the supporters at home. Although Salah skillfully dribbled the ball on the right wing and crossed it with accuracy, Nunez was unable to defeat Ederson. Man City had greater possession of the ball in the first half, but they were unable to generate enough opportunities for a goal. Haaland’s class was raised once more.

Nathan Ake, a defender, passed two Liverpool players in the 27th minute. After he transferred the ball to Haaland, the Norwegian striker scored the first goal for Man City with a dangerous shot and a rhythmic movement.

In addition to being his 50th Premier League goal, it also set a record for the fastest player in history to reach 50 goals (48 matches), surpassing the previous mark by 17 matches.

After giving up a goal, Liverpool attempted to press Ederson’s goal with a stronger team.

Man City was able to “lock down” Salah, though. Nunez was a little awkward in the penalty area, which allowed the opposition to progressively miss opportunities.

Liverpool positioned themselves better going into the second half. They launched more coordinated attacks and held the ball longer. The quickness and skill of Jeremy Doku were the standout features of the first twenty minutes. Arnold was continuously having trouble attacking because of this player. He had a few noteworthy passes for Erling Haaland and scored a lot of goals from free kicks.

But Alexander-Arnold made an impact in the few time he was able to approach Man City’s penalty area. The 80th minute saw Salah give up just enough of the ball for Arnold to score a diagonal shot, tying the score at one for the visiting club.
