Manchester –
The first part of the Manchester City vs Liverpool duel is over. There were two penalties, the score was 1-1.
Liverpool tried to attack from the first minutes, but City also served their rival. The visitors opened the scoring in the 13th minute with a penalty from Mohamed Salah.
It started with a Kyle Walker foul on Sadio Mane, who stabbed from the left. Salah’s kick was not held back by Ederson between the City posts.
The goal made Liverpool feel more comfortable playing the ball in midfield. City did control the game, but had difficulty penetrating Liverpool’s defense.
City came close to leveling the score in the 25th minute when Raheem Sterling stabs from the right and shoots the ball into the corner. But Alisson Becker was quick to block it.
City’s quick attack in the 31st minute paid off to level the score at 1-1. Trent Alexander-Arnold was unable to retain Jesús, who escaped after receiving De Bruyne’s mature pass.
Jesus easily pushed Alisson’s net. The game belonged to City after that because they were able to push Liverpool’s defense even further.
City receive a penalty in the 42nd minute when Joe Gomez is charged with a hand as De Bruyne’s center hits his hand. Despite the fact that Gómez had withdrawn his hand, the VAR still declared a penalty.
De Bruyne’s execution but off target, so City couldn’t turn things around. 1-1 score lasted until halftime.
