    33'
    Lot's of love for De Bruyne - rightfully so - after the goal.
    31'
    Best chance yet for Liverpool as Mane slips in Salah, one-on-one, but the Egyptian telegraphs where he's going to shoot allowing Ederson to make a nice save.
    29'
    The free-kick is in a great position, central and about two yards outside the box, but Can wastes it, missing the target by some distance.

    Fernandinho now booked for bringing down Mane on the edge of the box.

    Liverpool react well, with Salah in down the right again, and Ederson has to be off his line quickly to claim a cross heading towards an unmarked Mane.

    GOAL! City lead! Out of nothing, De Bruyne splits the defence in half with a beautiful through ball which Aguero gets on the end of, rounds the goalkeeper then rolls home.

    Salah glides past Otamendi on the right then dribbles into the box but makes a poor decision, shooting straight at the goalkeeper with the outside of his left foot from a tight angle. Otamendi all over the place again.

    De Bruyne charges down Alexander-Arnold's clearance, wins the rebound and then gets hauled down by the right-back who joins Otamendi in the book.

    18'
    Can is the latest player to shoot from range but slips as he does so, meaning there's no power on the shot and it's an easy save for Ederson.
    16'
    15'
    City look shaky at the back already, with Salah and Mane both finding space in wide areas, and on this occasion the former cuts the ball back for Henderson to cross and he finds Firmino at the back post however the forward can only stab the ball straight at Ederson.
    13'
    Fernandinho tries his luck from range and produces one of those scuffed strikes that seems to gain speed as it gets closer to the goal. Mignolet tips it wide and City promptly waste another corner.
    11'
    Referee Moss has a word with Alexander-Arnold about how long he's taking to take throw-ins and 30 seconds later he slices a backpass to give away a corner. Not the best of starts for the youngster.
    7'
    Already this looks like it might be an end-to-end encounter. City are straight up the other end where Mignolet is equal to a 25-yard drive from De Bruyne.
    7'
    Moreno hits the resultant free-kick straight into the wall.

    Salah runs at Otamendi for the first time and is scythed down by the Argentine just outside the box. Clear booking.

    The hosts have a free-kick midway inside the Liverpool half which De Bruyne clips into the box and Jesus flicks wide.
    2'
    Moreno finds himself in a central position on the edge of the Man City box and has the first shot of the game, which is deflected behind.
