After City lost their third straight league game on Saturday, a 4-0 loss to Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool took full advantage and Arne Slot’s side now have 31 points from 12 games to City’s 23 ahead of their clash at Anfield next weekend.

“They were very important, especially after being down 2-1. It’s the most important thing to have won the game,” Salah said.
