Bernardo Silva tied the result after a great assist by Erling Haaland in the 84th minute, and it seemed like the 2 teams would share the point.

That was not the case, as the most dramatic moment came in the extra time of the 2^nd half. Pep Guardiola’s side was awarded a penalty for Alisson’s foul, and Erling Haaland converted it to complete the comeback for his team in the 93^rd minute.

In the 100^th minute, Man City scored even once more as Alisson was not on his net, but the goal was disallowed because Dominik Szoboszlai had made a foul earlier, as he was sent off, and Liverpool finished the final seconds of the clash with 10 men on the pitch.
