On the red side of Merseyside it was +11 despite the winter.
In the 15th round of the Premier League, Liverpool played Man City.
In the first minutes, the “Reds” acted incomparably, surpassing their opponents in all aspects. In the 11th minute, Dominik Szoboszlai made a dangerous shot on goal, but Ortega dealt with it.
However, after only one minute, Stefan was powerless. Cody Gakpo sent the ball into the net from close range after Virgil van Dijk failed to do so.
The “Reds” then continued their incredible dominance over their main rival. Less than 10 minutes later, van Dijk had another good chance.
After that, the game went quiet until the start of the second half. The break went to the advantage of the Merseysiders, and they created chance after chance in the first 10 minutes, however, the ball did not fly into the goal.
It only happened in the 72nd minute. Stefan Ortega fouled Luis Diaz, causing the referee to give a penalty. Mohamed Salah came close to the mark and converted the 11-metre kick.
City didn’t even score a prestige goal, and they didn’t get enough points in terms of expected goals.
