Summary of Liverpool's 0:1 victory over Manchester City (Sport1)
The game of the season in recent years in England provided us with another fine Premier League drama when tonight (Sunday) Liverpool inflicted their first loss in the league to Manchester City when they beat them at Anfield 0:1 with a goal by Mohamed Salah in the 76th minute and rose to eighth place.
The Citizens recorded a third league game in a row without a win against the Reds, and remained in second place earlier after Arsenal beat Leeds 0:1 in the early game to open a four-point gap over the champions.
For Jurgen Klopp, who was sent off in the 86th minute after screaming at the fourth official following an alleged foul by Bernardo Silva on Salah, it was the 11th win over Pep Guardiola.
He increased by four victories the impressive achievement of the most victories against the Spanish coach, with the German's balance being positive with 11 victories against Pep's 9.
At the final whistle, Guardiola referred to the championship race with Arsenal and the disallowed goal for his team: "We lost because we made a mistake at Anfield, and here you don't make mistakes. We played well overall, but again, this is Anfield and the atmosphere here is different. Even the crowd and I turned to each other a few times and shouted. Regarding Foden's goal, the referee said to continue the move, so we continued. It's a disallowance of a goal only because they even considered and gave an advantage during the move after the foul. If they hadn't considered it, they wouldn't have disallowed the goal in my opinion. We lost the game after the goal was disallowed, because at that moment, Anfield woke up for life".
During the second half and after Foden's goal was disallowed, Liverpool fans threw coins at Pep Guardiola: "They tried to throw at me, but it didn't hit me. Maybe next time they will succeed. This is the atmosphere I'm talking about at Anfield."

The German coach agreed with the referee's decision to send him off when the spirits calmed down and was very satisfied with the result: "At the end of the day, probably the decision to draw a red was correct, but I just didn't understand how he didn't whistle for the foul. The linesman ignored Bernardo's clear perception of Salah. That's how it is, we The coaches are emotionally involved in the game. The most important thing is the three points. We now need to recover for the game on Wednesday against West Ham, because it will be no less difficult, but I'm really very happy with what happened here today."
Liverpool's Egyptian star was interviewed at the end of the game and sounded optimistic about his and the team's future after the bad start to the season: "I hope this victory will give us confidence for the rest of the season. We weren't at our peak, but we have to keep winning. I'm not worried when I don't score, like when I miss At the start of the half, I knew that the second chance I would get would already be in the net."
The man of the match added about the rest of the season and the race for titles: "Personally, I like big games and competing for titles. In our mind we will continue to fight until the last moment for every possible title this season, but we will have to concentrate and go game by game. The team should be in a better position at this stage of this season, but we are not stressed either. We will continue to give a good push in the following games as well."
In the upcoming round, Liverpool will host West Ham (Wednesday, 9:30 p.m., Sport2), while Manchester City will return to play only on Saturday against Brighton (5:00 p.m., Sport1)
