Crucially, that was 12 minutes in. In eight of Liverpool’s last nine victories against City, the Reds had scored inside the first 13 minutes.
The Blues have won twice here since 1956, and it seemed all of their Anfield ghosts came back to haunt them at once.
John Stones’ mistake in January allowed Firmino in to put Liverpool 2-1 up, kickstarting City’s 10-minute wobbly spell, and the same can be said of Walker’s semi-clearance. City could simply not recover.
