The Story in 60 Seconds

Manchester City routed Liverpool at Anfield to sit atop the Premier League table despite ongoing off-field scrutiny. Liverpool were reduced to ten men after Ryan Gravenberch received a second yellow card for a foul on Jeremy Doku. Soon after, Erling Haaland opened the scoring, followed quickly by a curling goal from Doku and a third strike from Rayan Cherki past goalkeeper Alisson.
