Manchester City crushed Liverpool 3–0 in what became a celebration of both dominance and creativity. Erling Haaland, the Viking striker, opened the scoring with a powerful header, setting the tone for Pep Guardiola’s 1000th match as a manager. Nico González added the second, before Jérémy Doku sealed the night with a breathtaking solo strike that sent fans into frenzy.
The win symbolized the perfect balance between raw power and flair — Haaland’s unstoppable finishing and Doku’s electric dribbling have made City almost unplayable. Guardiola’s 1000th game could not have been scripted better: total football, total control, total chaos for Liverpool.
As the Premier League title race heats up, Manchester City’s message was clear — they remain the team to beat.
