Video: Man City 1 -Vs- 4 Liverpool (Premier League) Highlights
Perhaps the greatest compliment that can be paid to Liverpoolis that they played the kind of thrilling football that Manchester City’s owners in Abu Dhabi want to see of their own team. Jürgen Klopp’s side should really have made this an even more comprehensive rout,
offering great encouragement for his work behind the scenes, and there have certainly not been many times when the modern-day City have been so outplayed on their own ground.
Liverpool were three ahead after 33 minutes and could conceivably have scored just that many again before Sergio Agüero’s goal, on his return from injury, offered City a brief flicker of hope before half-time. Coutinho, in particular, was exhilarating, scoring one and playing a significant part in the other two.
Roberto Firmino had his best game for the club and it was almost a surprise Liverpool restricted themselves to only one more goal in the second half, courtesy of Martin Skrtel’s 81st-minute volley.
