The champions stay unbeaten in the league start with a sixth straight win after a 3-0 at Anfield—while an appeal over 2009-2018 rules looms.
Manchester City remain top of the Premier League after a 3-0 win at Anfield—securing six wins from six in the league season. The match was played under heavy pressure, with Anfield’s crowd making its feelings heard early.
Anfield makes its point
The Kop kicked off with chants aimed at City, including: “You haven't won a trophy since 1976”, a jab at the last major trophy City won before the current ownership scrutiny. After the game, City left the stadium amid boos and allegations of cheating.
Top spot, same controversy
Liverpool have finished second to City in 2014, 2019 and 2022, and the atmosphere turned hostile as supporters treated the match like a proxy for the wider debate. The noise follows an independent commission’s ruling that City broke Premier League rules between 2009 and 2018. City are appealing the decision and deny wrongdoing, as reported by Sky Sports.
