After all the favorable calls Liverpool has enjoyed all season, you folks should be the last to complain about missed calls.
What favourable calls?
Many including but not limited to soft pks that other clubs don't get the benefit of.
Nah, you're wrong.

The unluckiest team getting cheap pks left and right. OK.
Spurs have won the same number of penalties at Anfield as Liverpool in the past year. Left and right? OK.

Nonetheless it should have been a red card
What are the fav calls? U are probably referring to the 2 PKs at home in the last 2yrs?.

That was an excellent game to watch. One of the best I've seen in a while. I felt like I was watching a tactical masterpiece.

The game was balanced until City took control from around the 20th-60th minutes. Despite his goal I felt Aguero was a liability with his poor dribbling and decisionmaking. I understand why he's out there but Sterling is such an enigma; a more decisive winger in his role today would've ran riot on Liverpool. Despite all his shortcomings today, he set up the winning goal so he earned his shirt. Sane had an up and down game but caused problems all day for Liverpool.

It was strange to see Liverpool on the defensive in an EPL game. Other than Mane's first half chance and their goal they struggled to create much.

Lets see how they react after such a big loss. They have a 4 point lead so they can't be too upset and sooner or later they would have to deal with adversity. One of the things they have going for them is a much easier schedule until mid-February than City.

Liverpool were not the better side, hitting the post doesn't count as a goal. Speaking of chances, City blew a few of their own clear cut chances too. There were parts were Liverpool controlled the game but there were parts City took control as well but at the end of the day City wanted it more and came out with the W. Two good teams put on a good show, that's all that was. To suggest Liverpool were the better side is laughable and the stats (besides having slightly better possession) don't correlate with this line of thought.

Actually they were tactically the side with greater stability, and City won on emotion and guts- nothing wrong with that btw...

True the game went back and forth a few times, but LFC was able to control the game without the ball better than City. It wasn't a game based on possession even though LFC shaded possession slightly; LFC had more shots on goal. On chances created, LFC also shaded it...

1v1 with the GK cannot be a half chance.

City cleared the ball off the line three times and they struggled to create much?

fernandinho was the man of the match, made sure he disrupted Liverpool midfield, good tactical game though, a bit scrappy, the game deserved a draw but i think it was good for the league that city won this, Liverpool should recover from this easily, they got beaten by a slight margin of error, easily the 2 best sides in the premiership right now
So angry Nigeria got kicked out of the world cup once again, i nearly told my wife that i caught my girlfriend with another man today!

I think he meant Mane's chance in the first half.

Good game,City were lucky to win the game,Kompany is lucky not to see red and that change the outcome.
4 points not bad,they now have tough games like Chelsea and spurs at home.Good result for the league and I must say this are the best two teams in the league by a mile.
