📰 Story of the day

So much for Liverpool getting nervous and not having the bottle to see off Manchester City.

After seeing them drop four points in their last two games, many started to question Jürgen Klopp’s side. That always seemed ridiculous, considering how good they’d looked for much of the season so far.

Normal service resumed on Saturday and Anfield were treated to a nice easy win. And another clean sheet. This title race is going to the wire.

🗣 Talking points

⚽️ Goooolazo

Liverpool’s third goal was the best of the afternoon. A beautiful looped outside of the boot pass from Naby Keïta released Roberto Firmino, who chased the ball into a tight angle on the edge of the box.

Naturally, Mohamed Salah was in the right place at the right time. Firmino found him with a smart backheel and Salah cooly took a touch and passed the ball into the far corner.
