Manchester City continued to press relentlessly for a winner, and their efforts were rewarded deep into stoppage time. In the 93rd minute, Erling Haaland calmly converted from the penalty spot, completing a dramatic turnaround and silencing the home supporters.

The drama escalated further when Szoboszlai was shown a red card moments after scoring for a late foul on Haaland, compounding Liverpool’s frustrations and capping off a chaotic finale.

The victory breathes new life into Manchester City’s title charge, as they now sit six points behind league leaders Arsenal. For Liverpool, the defeat leaves them sixth on the table with 39 points, with their focus now shifting to securing European football rather than competing for the title.

Anfield witnessed pure footballing madness, with Manchester City once again walking away with all three points in a game that will be remembered for its late drama and intense rivalry.
