Liverpool defeats Manchester City in Super Sunday Showdown

Liverpool strengthened their grip at the top of the Premier League table with a commanding 2-0 victory over Manchester City in their Super Sunday clash. The Reds, already holding an eight-point advantage over the defending champions, extended their lead with a confident display at Anfield.

Cody Gakpo opened the scoring in the first half, finishing off a perfectly delivered low cross from Mohamed Salah. Manchester City pushed for an equalizer after the break but struggled to break down Liverpool’s resolute defense.

The decisive moment came when Luis Diaz was brought down in the box by City goalkeeper Ortega Moreno. Salah calmly slotted home the resulting penalty to double Liverpool’s advantage and secure the win.

The result sees Liverpool move to 34 points, firmly at the top of the Premier League standings under the leadership of Arne Slot. They now sit nine points clear of Arsenal and Chelsea, who each secured victories over the weekend—Arsenal defeating West Ham and Chelsea overcoming Aston Villa.

Liverpool’s latest triumph underscores their title credentials and leaves Manchester City with significant ground to make up in the race for Premier League supremacy.
