But City’s Julian Alvarez sent home from close range in the 70th after Adrian denied Phil Foden’s strike.

The goal was awarded by VAR after it was ruled offside. The game became leveled.

Liverpool’s victory became obvious when Mohamed Salah poked an 83rd minute penalty in City’s net to make it 2-1.

The Reds however added the third goal in the last minute, through a header by Darwin Nunez.
