In the 25th round of the Premier League, Liverpool hosted Manchester City at home. At the end of the match at Anfield, the visitors prevailed with a score of 3:1.
Uzbek defender Abdukodir Khusanov started the game for Manchester United. However, in the second half, an unpleasant incident occurred: the team's goalkeeper, Gianluigi Donnarumma, struck Husanov with his knee. For this reason, Josep Guardiola substituted Ruben Dias in the 61st minute, taking the defender off the field.
According to the scorecard, Dominic Soboslai opened the scoring in the 74th minute, putting Liverpool ahead. However, in the final minutes of the game, Man City increased pressure and turned the result in their favor.
Bernardo Silva equalized for the visitors in the 84th minute. In the final moments of the match, Erling Haaland scored from a penalty, securing a crucial 2-1 victory for City.
