"I think it is obvious and clear the wrong decision has been made,"
"He (Robertson) didn't interfere at all with what the goalkeeper can do. Immediately after the game someone showed me a goal the same referee allowed for City against Wolves last season."
"It was a very difficult first half for us. They were pressing us really high, we struggled a lot in the first half. It was obvious they were better than us,"
"You are hoping you can get to the end of the half 1-0 behind and then there were five to 10 minutes that were influential: Instead of going 1-1, it went to 2-0. But that could have influenced the game in a positive way for us as the first half we were so poor."
Manchester City beat Liverpool 3-0, with Erling Haaland opening the scoring with a header. Virgil van Dijk's header from a corner was ruled out after left-back Andy Robertson was adjudged to be in an offside position as the ball hit the net. A comparison was made to a goal previously allowed for City against Wolves. Liverpool struggled in a difficult first half as City pressed high and dominated key phases, turning a potential 1-1 interval into a 2-0 deficit. Pep Guardiola marked his 1,000th game and credited his players. Opta noted City had under 50% possession in four of 11 league games this season.
