"Manchester City defeated Liverpool 2-1 at Anfield to record a historic victory to not only break their duck at the ground they never have any luck at, but also keep themselves in the title race, maintaining a six-point gap with Arsenal. Donnarumma started in goal, Nunes, Khusanov, Guehi, and Ait Nouri were the back four. O'Reilly, Rodri, and Bernardo were in midfield. Semenyo, Marmoush, and Haaland were in attack."
"City had the majority of the control in the first half and nearly had themselves in front in the first minute of the match when Bernardo passed it through to Haaland in on goal but the shot and rebound were blocked by Allison. Despite their possession and chances in the first half, the Blues could not find the net in this period and had to settle for a goalless scoreline at half-time."
"As such with previous second halves this year, City did not have as much control in the second half and allowed Liverpool back in the game and were under pressure. Semenyo had a shot in the 56th minute that was blocked after Marmoush laid it off to him from Ait-Nouri's pass and this was the closest City came to scoring for some time."
