Liverpool Owns Manchester City
If you watched the Liverpool-Manchester City match on Saturday, the one thing you were probably thinking was, "what is going on?" A Kompnay-less Manchester City defense was shredded by Jurgen Klopp's bunch en rout to a 4-1 victory in the Etihad. All of Liverpool's goals vs Manchester City were beauties aside from the own-goal by Mangala. The Brazilian's for Liverpool were who stole the show though. Philipe Coutinho and Roberto Firminho each registered a goal and an assist to one another. The first goal (above) was an absolute peach spurred by a glorious back heel by Emre Can to the little magician who simply passed it on to his fellow countryman for an easy goal.
But before that though, Firminho assisted Coutinho on a perfectly placed ball after a 30-yard run to the MCFC third.
At this point, Manchester City were reeling. Kun Aguero added to the scoresheet with a beauty of his own, but Liverpool dominated the game from begining to end. Then Martin Skrtel decided to get in on the fun, blasting a rocket from just inside the box.
