At the supposed showdown for the English championship, the Reds as well as the Citizens intense, rapid football, paired with opportunities on the assembly line. The largest football game currently convinced it.
If Klopp had still compared the rivalry before the game with tennis, his metaphor fell a bit different after the 90 minutes: "We can describe it like a boxing fight. As soon as you get your hands around, you get a massive blow."
And the boxers in the red pants had to take some hits on Sunday and, especially in the weak first half, threatened K.O. in the title fight. Again and again, the households played the broken down LFC defensive with high balls, found their targeters and directly searched the way to the gate. "I can not remember when they played so many balls behind the chain," says Klopp's Monsagering Summary.

Even City's second hit also fell after this principle. Long Ball Joao Cancelo, Direct Decision Gabriel Jesus, Gate (36.). "In the moments in whom we wanted to know: bem." The boxers of MANCITY had missed the Reds the next bolt. And yet the LFC found immediately after the break by Sadio Manés Hits 2: 2 back into the game (46.).
"The start of the second half was much better," Klopp, who coaches a fainted runner champion in the second passage and thus had a draw against actually better hosts.
"Many things have liked me. I believe we were closer than ever before," said the 54-year-old. Nevertheless, Liverpool was just "close". With the draw, the Reds remain a counter behind leader City, with seven remaining lots. The 2: 2 thus played the citizens in the cards. Nevertheless, "Everything Goody," said Klopp. "Great game and with the result we have to live."
