Manchester City crush Liverpool
Manchester City Crush Liverpool. A Stevan Jovetic double and a third by Sergio Aguero helped Manchester City send out an ominous warning to those with designs on their Premier League crown, routing Liverpool 3-1 in the first heavyweight clash of the new season on Monday.
London: A Stevan Jovetic double and a third by Sergio Aguero helped Manchester City send out an ominous warning to those with designs on their Premier League crown, routing Liverpool 3-1 in the first heavyweight clash of the new season on Monday. With new signing Mario Balotelli watching from the stands, last season's runners-up Liverpool looked lively in miserable conditions at Etihad Stadium, but an error from debutant Alberto Moreno allowed the Montenegro international to smash the ball home in the 41 minute. He grabbed his second 10 minutes after the restart, putting away Samir Nasri's low cross, while Aguero scored 23 seconds after coming on as a substitute as Manuel Pellegrini's side put down an early-season statement of intent.
The Merseysiders failed to seriously trouble Joe Hart despite having plenty of ball and earned a consolation through a Pablo Zabaleta own goal when the result was already sealed.
"Every game we play at home against the big four teams it’s like six points and you have to make a statement," midfielder Nasri said later."It’s important.
Last year Jovetic was injured and we saw in pre-season he was on fire and on Tuesday was a big start for him for this season."
The pre-match interest surrounded the return of the controversial Balotelli to the Premier League after a season and a half at AC Milan.
