We all knew it wasn't going to take long for these two to get their shooting boots on, and Salah has opened the scoring after just 17 minutes of play. The visitors lead 0-1 at the Etihad after a what had been a dominant City performance.

It's the fixture which always promises to throw up a lot of goals, as both City and Liverpool love to get forward. In the latest edition, it was Salah who got things underway.

Jota was threaded through on goal nicely, and the Portuguese did some great hold-up play, waiting for Salaha to join him up top. He laid it off to the Egyptian, who was charging in to bury it past Ederson.

This goal puts Klopp's men one up in what had been a game widely dominated by the hosts. Let's see if Guardiola's men can stage a comeback.
