Arne Slot couldn't understand why the pull on Ryan Gravenberch's arm wasn't a foul

The entire clash was an end-to-end affair.

As mentioned, the Cityzens were the ones who had the best chances of the game but that didn't stop Liverpool from breaking the deadlock.

Without Szoboszlai in the centre of the park, it was clear that Liverpool's midfield were struggling, however, with the number of injuries they've suffered, Slot was left with no other choice but to start him at right-back.

There were a couple of moments from Liverpool's midfield which stood out and, in one of their many counter attacks, there was a point when Ryan Gravenberch's arm was pulled which stopped the Dutchman from advancing the attack.

This caused plenty of frustration from Liverpool's bench with Sky Sports journalist Adam Bate sharing what he saw Slot do on the sidelines.

"Slot absolutely furious when it appears the referee is not going to give a foul on Gravenberch," he wrote.

"Feels more tense in this second half as there's a realisation that, far from the flurry of goals anticipated, one big moment might decide it."

Liverpool must get their act together before it's too late
