Liverpool met the current English champion in Manchester. Guardiola’s team remains in a prolonged crisis and was unable to fight for victory today.
The "Reds" left the Etihad with three points thanks to Mohamed Salah. The Egyptian first scored himself, then assisted Szoboszlai. Notably, the star African player set several Premier League records.
It is also worth mentioning that this victory for Liverpool was their first at the Etihad since 2015. For almost 10 years, the Merseysiders hadn’t been able to defeat their main rival on their home ground.
This match can definitely be seen as a transfer of championship powers. Liverpool is 11 points ahead of Arsenal, though they have one more match played. In any case, it’s hard to believe that the "Reds" could squander such a serious advantage.
