    Robertson on the far post to keep that cross alive, outstanding. Nods it down and who's there? Nunez is in the centre forward position.

    Liverpool deserve this.

    Darwin Nunez

    The perfect ending for Liverpool!

    Darwin Nunez has been a constant menace since he came on and he gets his reward to seal this game.

    He ghosts into space in the box to dive in and head home after Andy Robertson's downward header at the back post.

    City are working hard to find any sort of opening but every time they do there is a Red shirt stopping them crossing it or shooting.

    Liverpool are working hard.

    Erling Haaland has the ball in the net!

    But the linesman is flagging to show that a deep cross went out of play before Phil Foden could flick the ball back to the forward.

    Fine finish by Haaland, though.

    SEVEN added minutes. This isn't over yet!

    Fabio Carvalho is sent on for the last few minutes, in place of Luis Diaz. Got bags of talent, this kid.

    Virgil van Dijk is definitely winning round one between himself and Erling Haaland. The defender gets in ahead of the forward to win a header and is also given a free-kick for a wayward arm to the face.

    Thomas: There's no doubt about Haaland's quality but for overall quality and depth I'd take Liverpool's attack over City's any day.

    Liverpool are on the charge here, driving on for a third.

    Andy Robertson wins the ball back high up, charges to the edge of the box but gets right under his shot to send it flying over.

    Darwin Nunez is in the thick of it in the box again, rising to meet a delivery and glance a header just wide.

    JChester United: If that's a penalty, then the handball at the other end is definitely a penalty. New season, same old terrible decisions.

    Naby Keita looks to finish it after being found in the box by fellow sub Harvey Elliott, but his effort deflects wide.

    It had to be a good penalty from Salah.

    Ederson guessed right and threw everything to his left. The strike was clean and accurate; whenever you hit the side-netting you've got a great chance of scoring.

    Mohamed Salah

    Salah wins!

    It is that now familiar stuttering run and true, driven finish into the bottom corner. Ederson dives the right way but it is beyond his reach.

    Liverpool lead again, with seven minutes to go.

    Salah has the ball; he saw the referee go to the screen. It means one thing.

    It is a harsh penalty.

    It's Mohamed Salah versus Ederson...
