This Liverpool performance was night and day from the dominant win over Real Madrid in midweek, but the game ultimately turned when Liverpool had a goal disallowed.
Liverpool thought that had equalised against Manchester City when Virgil van Dijk arrowed a header into the bottom corner – until a flag spoiled the celebrations.
Andy Robertson was controversially adjudged to have been in an offside position and a VAR review did not overturn the initial on-pitch decision.
Overall, though, Arne Slot's side were second best by a distance.
They do not look like title challengers, and while it is still very early in the season, it is difficult to see how Liverpool finish above either Arsenal or Manchester City.
В никакъв случай това решение на съдиите не е оправданние за загубата, но кой знае в каква посока би тръгнала срещата?
За първи път от мнооого време насам не се неря на паузата за нац.отбори.
