Manchester City produced a dramatic late comeback to defeat Liverpool 2–1 at Anfield on Sunday, cutting Arsenal’s lead at the top of the Premier League table.

After a goalless first half, Dominik Szoboszlai opened the scoring for Liverpool with a stunning free-kick before City turned the game on its head in the closing minutes.

Bernardo Silva drew City level in the 84th minute, setting up a frantic finale that saw Erling Haaland convert a controversial stoppage-time penalty to seal the win.

The match descended into chaos moments later when a bizarre City goal was ruled out by VAR and Szoboszlai was shown a red card for pulling Haaland’s shirt during the buildup.
