Man City 3-2 Liverpool - A thrilling 5 goals Carabao Cup clash

Manchester City resume the second half of the season with a magnificent 3-2 victory against Liverpool to reach the last 8 of the Carabao Cup in a 5 goals thriller.

The scoring account was opened just 10 minutes into the game by Erling Haaland with an excellent assist from Kevin De Bruyne. A partnership a lot of Manchester City fans have missed and were waiting for following the Word Cup break.

Just ten (10) minutes later, Liverpool youngster – Fábio Carvalho equalized by converting a pass from former Manchester City playmaker – James Milner.
