There was zero sign of anxiety or elevated pressure from those representing the home side on the pitch in a game that took on much greater significance after Harry Kane’s towering 95th-minute header at the Etihad injected life into the title race. Instead, there was a fury and ferocity to tear into Marcelo Bielsa’s side and cause increased discomfort for City, as told in the first half stats alone: three Liverpool goals, eight shots on target versus none. The scoreline at the break could have been fatter had Luis Diaz’s early industry been rewarded, Fabinho and Andy Robertson converted well-crafted openings or a Salah chip wasn’t cleared off the line.
