Dominant Liverpool 'controlled' Manchester City for 75 minutes - Klopp

The Reds moved nine points clear of fourth-placed City heading into the international break with the 3-1 win

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp believes his side controlled the majority of the game against Manchester City, with the visitors on top only for the final 15 minutes.

The home side sit eight points clear at the top of the table after beating the champions 3-1, ahead of Leicester and Chelsea in second and third respectively.

City slipped to fourth after their third defeat of the campaign, with Klopp arguing that Pep Guardiola’s side were largely inferior in Sunday’s encounter.
