Liverpool reached the FA Cup final for the first time under Jurgen Klopp after edging Manchester City 3-2 on Saturday afternoon. Read more ➡️
The Citizens changed half the team that drew with the same opposition a week ago in the league, as Jack Grealish was the focal point of attack in place of Kevin De Bruyne while the Reds made only three alterations, as Naby Keita, Luis Diaz and Ibrahima Konate were recalled.
Man City were not allowed time and space to settle as Mane gave Liverpool a two-goal cushion in the 17th minute with a sliding block on goalkeeper Zack Steffen, who hesitated clearing away a back pass, that crossed the line from close-range. The Citizens continued to have chances on transitions as Jesus had a chance to reduce the deficit to just one goal 20 minutes before time after he was sent through on goal by Bernardo Silva but Alisson rushed off his line and made a crucial save with an out-stretched leg in a one-on-one.
Man City eventually pulled another goal back in stoppage time after Silva slotted a close-range strike past Alisson after a cross on the byline by Mahrez took a deflection off the Brazilian goalkeeper.
