Liverpool
Salah gave the beaten Klopp team the 1-0 victory and air. A few minutes for Julián Álvarez and a disallowed goal for Guardiola's men.
1-0 win for the Reds at Anfield.
In the preview of the stellar duel on this date in the Premier League, Jurgen Klopp assumed that his team was on point against Pep Guardiola's, but he ended up smirking. In a very close match, it was a 1-0 win for the Reds at Anfield. First defeat of the season and Erling Haaland was left dry.

It was not a typical Premier game, with many goals, but rather had the tone of classic Argentine soccer, with clenched teeth and details influencing the result. A chess duel that had no owner until the last quarter of an hour, when Mohamed Salah could finally score the goal that had previously been denied twice with very clear chances.

Manchester City also had theirs and even celebrated a goal. Still, he quickly choked because the VAR called, the referee reviewed and ended up canceling it: in the run-up to what was Foden's 1-0, there was a grab of Haaland to Fabinho. After seeing it on the screen, the judge called a foul, which was all 0-0. Guardiola could not believe it.

With City focused on attack, there were several cons that the homeowner was able to capitalize on beforehand, but only at the end did Salah manage to shake off the sneer and give air to a team that is doing well in the Champions League but very badly in the Premier: with this victory they were in eighth place (with one game less), 14 points behind! of the leader Arsenal, who won their game against Leeds and took advantage of the loss of the Citizens to stretch their advantage.

Toward the end of the match, Guardiola sent Julián Álvarez onto the field to play the final minutes and try for an agonizing draw, but it didn't happen. He had a few more chances, but Liverpool also had chances to finish him off. In this way, City lost its undefeated in the Premier and was four behind the leader Arsenal. And Klopp, who was expelled, will be able to claim that he beat the best team in the world.
