City are pressing high and breaking fast when they win the ball. De Bruyne chips a cross to the back posts that goes out, and then tests Kelleher from distance that the keeper punches away unconvincingly. Phil Foden knocks it past Joe Gomez like he's not there and Bradley takes no chances by putting the cross out for a corner. The set piece causes problems but Liverpool clear.
Chief City Writer, Simon Bajkowski, at Anfield: We’re ten minutes in and Kelleher has already been forced into two saves with City spurning another two good opportunities to get in on goal. It has been an excellent start from the away team even if Liverpool have pressed them well and forced a few last-ditch efforts at the back. City more than holding their own early on and looking dangerous when they attack.
