Liverpool ended Manchester City's unbeaten run of the season with a goal from Mohamed Salah with 14 minutes left that gave the Reds victory in the Premier League big match played today at Anfield.
After this success, Jurgen Klopp's men are still 10 points behind City and 14 from leaders Arsenal (who today won 1-0 in Leeds with a goal from Saka) but kept their title hopes alive.
Today Klopp was sent off in the final stages of the match because he protested too loudly after failing to award a free kick after a foul by Bernardo Silva on Salah, he said.
But also City recriminates for Anthony Taylor's arbitration for the cancellation of a Phil Foden goal at the beginning of the second half after the intervention of the Var who, in the development of the action, had detected a foul by Haaland on Fabinho .
After the cancellation of the goal, Guardiola was 'targeted' by a toss of coins by the fans of the Reds.
"This is Anfield", the manager's disconsolate comment at the end of the match.
So despite all the results obtained with Guardiola, the City has yet to move to Anfield, where the record of unbeaten home defeat stands, with the public in the stands (therefore not when playing behind closed doors for the pandemic), which dates back to 2017
. to the positive streaks interrupted today, there is also that of Haaland who, with the City shirt, scored for ten consecutive games.
It should also be remembered that, in the league, Manchester City were not only unbeaten since the start of the season but have not lost a game since last February.
"Personally, I always love to play for a title - Salah said after the game - and in my head I will fight for it. But we have to concentrate more and take one game at a time".
