Ahead of their latest trip to Liverpool, Manchester City worked tirelessly to avoid the kind of disastrous 10-minute spell which cost them three goals in 10 minutes in the two sides’ Premier League meeting at Anfield in January.
They worked on complex, ever-changing formations, on more direct passing, and Pep Guardiola tended towards the “safe” option he uses in the biggest game – playing an extra central player instead of a winger.
But it all failed during Tuesday night’s shocking 3-0 loss on Merseyside. If anything, Liverpool’s “spell” was not a spell at all – it was more than 30 minutes of the first half, and Guardiola’s side, who have looked untouchable pretty much all season in England, are now facing elimination at the quarter-final stage of the Champions League.
