Manchester City beat Liverpool 3-0 at Anfield on Sunday, 11 October, with goals from Erling Haaland, Jeremy Doku and Rayan Cherki, according to Naija News's roundup. Liverpool's Ryan Gravenberch was sent off for a second yellow card, and the first half was largely uneventful.
The match was played under the shadow of City's Premier League case. Sports Illustrated, citing The Athletic, reported on 25 September that City had been found guilty of 114 of 115 charges over conduct between 2009 and 2018; City deny the allegations and are expected to appeal, and no sanctions have been decided. Liverpool fans displayed a banner reading "a generation of supporters cheated". Haaland said afterwards that the team will stick together.
Monday's papers say the win extends City's lead at the top. They also report Manchester United's draw with Tottenham was their worst Premier League start in 40 years.
