In the last, 20th round of the Premier League, the leader of the table, Manchester City, again increased its advantage over the most dangerous rivals. Pep Guardiola’s side won the Emirates Stadium in stoppage time, when the Spaniard Rodri hit the grid.
The guests were leading 2-0 after half an hour of play thanks to goals from Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah, but in the very end of the first half the hosts gave a double blow. First Mateo Kovacić had a phenomenal volley shot, and then Christian Pulisic was able to equalize.
The Liverpool legend is in no doubt. “Manchester City to win the league”
Thanks to these results, he is 10 points ahead of “The Blues” and as much as 11 points over Juergen Klopp’s team, although they have one more match played less. According to the legend of Liverpool City, it can be almost certain to defend the title of the English champion.
– I think Manchester City will win. I don’t see Liverpool and Chelsea recovering so much. If Liverpool had won today, they would have had two points more and could only be six points behind City after winning a backlog against Leeds, Carragher said on Sky Sports.
“But when you have more than three games behind Manchester City, it’s hard for me to imagine it.” City is fantastic when it comes to match control. He’s just as good at defense as he is at attacking Liverpool. It makes a big difference, explained the former England international.
– When you lead confidently 2-0 against a big opponent and don’t win, you must be disappointed. But Liverpool will probably be happy in the end. It was evident after the changes. But that’s why Liverpool won’t win the league this season. He took the lead 17 times this season, as did Manchester City. However, City won each of these games later, and Liverpool only 12 of them. They lack what they had in their championship season – control of the game – analyzed the former defender of “The Reds”.
in the last away games they drew with Tottenham (2: 2), lost to Leicester (0: 1) and now tied again, this time against Chelsea.
– Normally such a draw against Tottenham would not be a bad result. But when Manchester City scores somewhere between 95-100 points, you can’t even afford to draw with strong rivals, concluded Carragher.
