Liverpool had barely touched the ball, it was all City.
City were then denied a clear penalty, but from the clearance, Liverpool had their front three parked on the halfway line & looked like scoring. The attack broke down but the ball rebounded to Fabinho who hit a worldie from 25 yards which was right in the corner of the net. Great goal.
12 minutes go by before Liverpool's 2nd attack, lovely cross & Mo Salah thrillingly heads it in without breaking stride. Wonderful goal. Suspicion of offside but VAR say it's OK, so it's OK.

Half-time; Liverpool 2 Arsenal 0
Cracking first half, definitely helped by the decision of City to play without a defence.
It's not over yet, City have made several chances but are not quite clicking up front so far.
51st minute;
Henderson crosses from near the corner flag, and despite 3 City "defenders" + the 'keeper, Mane heads it in. Lovely job.Liverpool 3 Man City 0
78th minute;
Bernardo Silva pulls one back for beleaguered City. Too late for the comeback?Liverpool 3 Man City 1
RESULT; Liverpool 3 Man City 1

Congrats to goldnballz, the only entrant to get both selections correct today.
@goldnballz
Here is the provisional League Table, subject to errors, objections & omissions.
The figure for zadoc needs checking, as he temporarily "fell off" the spready in midweek due to an error on my part, but it won't affect the top 3.
