The focus of this Premier League battle is naturally the battle at the top of the table, Manchester City vs Liverpool, and the whole team of both sides is now in quite good shape. There is only a 1-point difference in the standings, so this game is also very important.
Although the game ended 2-2, Manchester City also saw the ability and status of the world's first midfielder. In the 5th minute of the game, De Bruyne fired a powerful shot from the front of the box to help Manchester City take the lead. Especially in the 94th minute of the game, in the final stages of stoppage time, De Bruyne was in a quick counter-attack, as if opening the perspective of God. A perfect arcing ball was delivered and fed to teammate Mahrez's feet.
Unfortunately, Mahrez did not seize this excellent opportunity to kill. One kick flew away, and City only shook hands with Liverpool 2-2 in the end. De Bruyne has scored from long range in two consecutive games and his violent long-range shots today regularly keep the team creating unexpected opportunities and have grown over the years. His passing has become a veritable masterclassman. In The Age of Modric, he was the world's number one midfielder.
None of his great passes in this game translate into assists, and De Bruyne has only had three assists this season. A big reason is that they have been miserable by their teammates, and the Manchester City striker is really too bad at seizing opportunities, whether it is Sterling or Mahrez, or the standard king Glallish bought last summer. Squandered again and again the perfect opportunity in the summer manchester City if they wanted to go further. Guardiola really wants to take Kane or Haaland to increase the team's goal firepower.
