The direct competition for many years with the extreme of the fans has made Man City – Liverpool become the Һoтtest pair in the Premier League today.
When Man Utd no longer dominated English football, Arsenal could not find the image of a big man, and Chelsea had ups and down as the champion candidate, in recent years the race in the Premier League is the playground between Man City and Liverpool. There, the player of the two f𝔦ɡҺт𝔦𝚗ɡ teams died because of three points, the coaches exchanged harsh words after many d/r/a/m/a/t/i/c matches, and the fans brought a bad aspect.
Everything seems to start from 2017-2018 when Man City fought Liverpool in the Champions League quarter-finals. At that time, Man City sublimated under Guardiola and was considered the heaviest candidate, and Liverpool was struggling to assert itself under Jurgen Klopp.
Liverpool fans are very optimistic and have a good spirit before the first leg, but an extreme part has a bad image of the club when attacking buses carrying Man City members with bottles, firecrackers, flares, and flares Other heavy objects on the road to Anfield. No member of Man City was affected, but the front glass door and the car door of the driver were broken, causing Liverpool to apologize to the visitors.
The damage was so heavy that UEFA had to hire Man City a bus instead of the journey home. In the end, Liverpool won 3-0 in the first leg and 2-1 in the second leg to reach the semi-finals. This s/h/o/c/k/i/n/g scene is a catalyst for what will become a h/o/t and h/o/s/t/i/l/e story between the two clubs.
That season, Man City won the Premier League with a record of 100 records and then successfully defended the throne in the next season with 98 points. In these two seasons, Liverpool turns fourth and second. In it, they only lost one match and won 97 points in the 2018-2019 season. Liverpool painfully looked at the glorious opponent and continued to wait for the first Premier League championship, and the first British leading title in 30 years.
Liverpool did not have to wait too long. They ascended the next season with 99 points, more than Man City to 18 points in the last season was canceled.
In the next two seasons, Man City returned to the throne, and Liverpool turns the third and second destination. The tension continued to break out in the 2-2 draw at Anfield in October 2021, when the backstage staff of Man City accused the host fans sitting in the stands of spitting on the face.
Everything peaked before the c/o/n/f/r/o/n/t/a/t/i/o/n in October 2022, where Klopp criticized Man City as one of the three clubs that could “do whatever they want to finance”, besides PSG and Newcastle – the things – The club is backed by the Gulf countries. Later, Man City criticized the German coach for “Distinguishing overseas culture” and being the cause of the “t/o/x/i/c competition” between the two clubs.
In this match, Liverpool won 1-0 thanks to Mohamed Salah’s late table. But besides the professional issue, the great w/a/r became a fierce competition outside the pitch when Man City fans chanted about Hillsborough and drew Graffiti mocking this tragedy. And yet, Guardiola was thrown three coins by the visitors and the Man City side accused their buses of being attacked.
This great battle summarizes the t/o/x/i/c nature of the rivalry between the two clubs and also witnessed Klopp chasing from the yard after screaming because of anger, then running to scream at the referee’s face and challenge the referee Anthony Taylor. Draw a red card.
Therefore, the organizers are concerned that there will be more trouble between Man City and Liverpool in the League Cup on December 22, just a few days after the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. Both clubs w/a/rn fans about “unacceptable behaviors” and promised to issue a ban on the yard if anyone was convicted to be related to any “u/g/l/y” incident.
Man City won 3-2 to reach the quarterfinals, but the match did not pass without any incidents. A 15 -year -old Man City fan was thrown a plastic cup by Liverpool fans. The w/o/u/n/d on her head was shocked by the medical staff and the s/h/o/c/k/i/n/g photo of the bloody towel appeared on social networks. Liverpool was forced to apologize, and CEO Billy Hogan directly called the girl’s father.
In the new year, Man City announced that they would install grids around the away area to prevent similar incidents. This is a popular thing in matches in Europe but rarely seen in the Premier League.
This season, Man City and Liverpool did not recreate the race like in recent years, but the tension remained intact when the two teams were in Etihad Saturday afternoon. At least, both parties have their own goals to pursue. Man City wants to w/i/t/h/d/r/a/w the difference with the top of Arsenal to five points, and Liverpool hopes to take a long step in the battle to win the top 4. Jurgen Klopp’s army was eliminated from the Champions League, and a position in the four groups of four The head of the Premier League is the only way to bring them to the number one European arena next season.
The drive at Etihad is expected to have more trouble with the audience. This means that Liverpool only receives 2,400 tickets instead of the 3,000 that most guest clubs have in the tournament. Naturally, Anfield’s terrace was not satisfied with such a decision.
“Although this season, Man City and Liverpool may not race to the championship, the great w/a/r still promises to be fiery and passionate as usual at Etihad tonight,” Sportmail emphasized.
