The eruption of joy was so intense that it likely resonated all the way to Manchester and perhaps even London. When Mohamed Salah scored from the penalty spot, securing a two-goal lead for Liverpool, the Anfield crowd knew the task was finally accomplished. The Kop, although not on edge, had been experiencing growing unease as Manchester City increased the pressure on Liverpool’s defense in pursuit of an equalizer to Cody Gakpo’s early goal. The initial celebration of Salah’s goal evolved into a deafening roar in the 80th minute, with the stadium echoing to the tune of “Allez, Allez, Allez”. This…
When Cleveland Browns starting quarterback Deshaun Watson tore his Achilles in Week Seven, it was the end of his season and, most likely, Brown’s career. Watson has been awful ever since he put on a Browns jersey in the fall of 2022, and the more he was thrown out there, the worse he got. Ezoic It’s Time For The Cleveland Browns To Play Pretend Everyone in the Cleveland Browns building knew Watson couldn’t play anymore, but they kept throwing him out there each week because they gave away three first-rounders and guaranteed him $230 million. The Browns were going to…
The Reds produced another convincing performance under the guidance of Arne Slot to open a huge margin between themselves and Pep Guardiola’s City. Thanks to their comfortable 2-0 win over the reigning champions, Liverpool are also nine points clear of second-place Arsenal, despite only being just over a third of the way into the Premier League season. But Van Dijk, who’s tasted heartache in title races before, knows that nothing is won at this time of year. “Good game. We won and we move on,” the Dutch defender told Sky Sports post-match. “We focus on the next game. That’s the…
Pep Guardiola is convinced that Manchester City are ready to turn a corner despite falling further behind Liverpool in the Premier League title race. City suffered a 2-0 loss against the Reds at Anfield. Cody Gakpo opened the scoring for Arne Slot’s side in the 12th minute before Mo Salah rounded off the triumph with a penalty in the 78th minute. Liverpool were dominant throughout and are now 11 points clear of Guardiola’s champions in the table. City have lost six of their past seven games – and four successive top-flight defeats – having hit a malaise no-one could have…
Arne Slot admits he does not feel sympathy for Pep Guardiola after Liverpool ensured Manchester City’s winless run stretched to seven games with a 2-0 victory at Anfield on Sunday. Goals in each half from Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah were enough for the Premier League leaders to restore their advantage to nine points and they are now 11 clear of the current champions. City, in contrast, have now lost four successive Premier League games and their defeat at Anfield was their sixth of recent weeks in all competitions, while a late collapse against Slot’s former side Feyenoord saw them…
Liverpool moved 11 points clear of Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City with goals from Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah at Anfield. With more than a third of the campaign gone, Arne Slot is in an incredible position. Guardiola was spotted putting six fingers up to the crowd during and then after the game, gently hitting back at the chants from the crowd for him to be “sacked”. Here’s a round-up of what he had to say about the game while speaking live on Sky Sports and then to the BBC. On poor recent performances: “They [players] help me. Three-to-four months ago…
When Mohamed Salah was waiting for the ghouls at Stockley Park to give him the green light to take his penalty, he was standing doing kick-ups with the ball like he was chilling in the back garden. If one single moment highlighted the confidence of this Liverpool squad, that was it. Some may call it arrogance, others would say swagger. And it was at complete contrast to Manchester City, who were a nervous wreck throughout. From a matter of seconds into this match, it was clear that Liverpool smelt blood. Rio Ferdinand compared them to ‘hungry Rottweilers’ on Wednesday night…
At the end of the 2024/2025 Premier League season, Liverpool’s 2-0 victory against Manchester City could be looked back upon as the game that decided the title race. Pep Guardiola’s men suffered their fourth consecutive league defeat as Arne Slot’s side dominated them for a majority of Sunday’s showdown. It seems like only Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal side are capable of challenging Liverpool for the coveted league crown at this moment in time. As for Manchester City, a seventh successive game without a win in all competitions indicates that it is undeniable that this team is suffering a crisis. A player…
Jamie Carragher joked he’d see Mohamed Salah in the car park after the Egyptian’s Player of the Match-winning performance in Liverpool’s 2-0 win over Manchester City. The tongue-in-cheek response from the former Reds defender came a week after Roy Keane’s heated altercation with a Ipswich Town supporter. The 32-year-old picked up another personal accolade as his penalty rounded off a dominant triumph over the Premier League champions, sending Arne Slot’s side nine points clear at the summit. Virgil van Dijk quizzed the Sky Sports reporter over who nominated Salah for the Player of the Match award, under the belief it…
Liverpool made Manchester City look like an U18 side in the opening 45 minutes of Sunday’s clash at Anfield. The Reds went 1-0 up against the Citizens after just 12 minutes thanks to Cody Gakpo, who finished off a low cross from Mohamed Salah minutes after Virgil van Dijk hit the post with a header. Manchester City looked a shadow of the side who have won the last four Premier League titles in a row, and Pep Guardiola must have been especially nervous every time Trent Alexander-Arnold received the ball, given how technically superb the Liverpool No.66 is. During that…
