The only thing on the line between Man City and Liverpool tonight is pride, so hopefully we should be treated to a wide open game.
That game has certainly started in a lively fashion, and Mo Salah came within inches of a fantastic solo goal.
It’s a trademark run in from the right flank and the City players can’t deal with him, but his powerful drive could only smash into the post and rebound to safety:

The big talking so far was the lack of effort that City put into the guard of honour, but they can regain some pride with a win tonight.
