Reds show their worth by hanging tough at the Etihad

 

A 1-1 draw with Manchester City at the Etihad would have been ideal for almost any club in the world. The fact that we are fighting to secure a goal further reinforces its importance.

Liverpool have been through a tough litmus test this season.The good form Jurgen Klopp’s men have shown in the opening months of this season is no surprise.

The Reds introduced a completely new formation in midfield and developed their attack further. The man-to-man victory against Newcastle was impressive, but the Magpies are still not the perennial power they want to be. Liverpool’s only defeat in the Premier League this season came controversially at Tottenham.

Tottenham had a goal disallowed and played heroically with nine men before a brutal own goal in the 96th minute.But going to the Etihad in their first game after the international break was never going to be perfect.

This was evident in the first half, when the Reds played unusually shy. In general, they are one of the few clubs who are not afraid of City.

Alisson’s rare sloppiness exposed his defense and the ever-present Erling Haaland made them pay.It was a time when countless teams could crash and city machinery could be overturned. But red seems to have a different personality again.

Liverpool fought back in the second half and eventually equalized thanks to a superb finish from Trent Alexander-Arnold, cementing their elite status. When Liverpool come out with energy and passion, there are very few teams in England, or even Europe, that can beat them.

A clash at the Etihad will boost Klopp’s confidence in his players. Even if it’s just a single point at the end of November, how it’s protected and who it’s connected to means a lot.

If you have any preconceived notions, throw them away right now. “Liverpool” is again among the candidates for the title.
