Mohamed Salah's excellent goal gave Liverpool a 1-0 win over Manchester City on Sunday evening to decide a bad-tempered match and end City's unbeaten start to the Premier League season. Salah controlled a long kick from Alisson before turning Joao Cancelo and slotting the ball past Ederson to decide the game as Liverpool built on Wednesday's 7-1 win away to Rangers in the Champions League.

City coach Pep Guardiola was left furious when Phil Foden's strike was ruled out for a previous foul by Erling Haaland, while Liverpool's Jurgen Klopp was sent off after losing his cool when his side didn't get a free-kick in the closing stages, reports Xinhua. Liverpool came into the game 13 points behind City following their worst start to a season in 10 years, but their defence improved considerably to take vital points that just about keep their title hopes alive.
