80′
Goal Carlos Tévez
GOAL! Liverpool 2-2 Manchester City: From hero to zero goes Martin Skrtel. A blind pass back to his keeper only finds the grateful Tevez who rounds Reina to bag his 100th English league goal. Absolute shocker from the man who gave Liverpool the lead. Twice they have thrown away an advantage.
 
66′
Goal Luis Suárez
GOAL!!! Liverpool 2-1 Manchester City! Instant reply from the Reds! Gerrard and Suarez stand over the free-kick about 25 yards from goal and with most expecting the skipper to strike, Suarez expertly bends the ball into the bottom right hand corner leaving Hart scrambling across his goal. Great goal, Liverpool lead!
 
63′
Goal Yaya Touré
GOAL! Liverpool 1-1 Manchester City: Tevez does really well to get a cross in under strong pressure and the combination of Reina and then Kelly fail to deal with it and Yaya Toure is on hand to slot home from two yards out. Game on!
 
34′
Goal Martin Skrtel
BOOM! GOAL! Liverpool 1-0 Man City: Towering header for Martin Skrtel! The Slovakian meets Gerrard's corner and absolutely rockets the ball past Hart with a sweet, sweet header. Anfield has erupted into song, one nil Liverpool!
