(The Guardian) “I didn’t survive heart surgery this week to watch a damn draw,” writes Hubert O’Hearn. “I feel amazingly, serenely confident in this match. Every intangible points to Liverpool and Pep is doing his thing (thanks Pep!) of sending out a scrambled line-up. Reds have this. Easily.” Admirable confidence there. And congratulations on the survival business.

(The Guardian) Jurgen Klopp talks with Sky: We’ve played them so often, and it’s always so difficult. But the key moments are, all chances we create we should score with, that would help massively. They will have their moments, 100%. Make sure we start good, stay good and finish good. And so does Virgil van Dijk: Well, it’s pretty clear it’s a massive game for both teams. We’re all looking forward to it. We just have to go out there, enjoy it, give everything we’ve got and have no regrets after.

(The Guardian) 2 mins: The entire game so far has been played in the far right corner, as City attack. They pumped the ball up there from kick-off and Liverpool haven’t been able to get rid of it. City now have a corner.
3 mins: City go down the left this time, where Sterling fouls Alexander-Arnold. Liverpool have literally not kicked the ball yet, so here’s there chance.

(The Guardian) 4 mins: Now the visitors go down the right again, where Bernardo Silva goes shopping at the foulmart and buys a free kick from Robertson. It’s cleared, but City have a corner.
5 mins: Stone heads the corner on, but it goes wide. Liverpool really need to keep the ball for 30 seconds ago and hope they start purring.

...what a shot by Fabinho! (The Guardian) GOAL! Liverpool 1-0 Manchester City (Fabinho, 6 mins)Cowabunga! They’ve had a kick now, sure enough! 6 mins: City think they should have had a penalty for handball, after the ball flicked off Alexander-Arnold’s thigh and into his arm. The referee waves play on and Liverpool raid down the left. Mane’s low cross is poked clear, but Fabinho runs onto it, takes a touch and blasts it inside the post from 25 yards! liverpool scarf-1

(The Guardian) 7 mins: There’s the inevitable VAR delay as the handball decision is checked, but the goal stands!
8 mins: The ball bounced into Alexander-Arnold’s arm off Bernardo Silva’s arm. In those particular circumstances, the two handballs cancel each other out and the referee has to play on. I think that’s right, no?

(The Guardian) 9 mins: Then City win a free-kick on the left - Alexander-Arnold again - from which Sterling heads wide from the corner of the six-yard box!

(The Guardian) 11 mins: Bernardo Silva gets another cheap free-kick, just outside Liverpool’s penalty area. This time Aguero nearly gets a touch at the near post, Stones nearly gets one at the far post, but the ball bounces out for a goal kick. City are owning this match, but not the scoreline.

.....and the Egyptian King strikes! (The Guardian) GOAL! Liverpool 2-0 Manchester City (Salah, 13 mins)They’ve only gone and stolen a second! Robertson’s cross is a beauty, and it bounces to Salah, who heads it in! But was he onside? He was onside! Liverpool are two goals up, and City are attacking beautifully but not defending at all. liverpool scarf-1 liverpool scarf-1

(The Guardian) 16 mins: The penalty call continues to cause controversy. “This is a distinctly uncharitable theory, but could this last VARce be down to an unwillingness to rule out such a truly stonking hit to call a penalty at the other end?” wonders Matt Richman. “You would fear for Michael Oliver if that was the case.” The way the ball struck Alexander-Arnold was extremely penaltyesque, but I just don’t think you can win a penalty by punching the ball into a defender’s arm, however accidental the attacker’s punch might have been.
