Manchester City crush Liverpool after verdict on 114 violations n

Manchester City won a crushing victory over Liverpool in the guest match of the sixth round of the English Premier League. The game in Liverpool ended with the score 0-3. City played their first game after being found guilty of 114 breaches of financial rules between 2009 and 2018 (the club has already appealed).

The goals were scored by Erling Holland (65th minute), Jeremiah Doc (68) and Ryan Sherkey (78).

The hosts Ryan Gravenberch in the 62nd minute earned a removal.

City strengthened their leadership in the standings with 18 points, Liverpool have ninth place (9 points)

Manchester club arrived at the stadium “Anfield” on a new route to avoid meeting with fans of guests, said Reuters. The announcement of the guest lineup was greeted by Liverpool fans with a noisy hum and chants of "Get out!" (meaning a possible penalty for City in the form of a demotion in class).

According to the agency, souvenir shops near Anfield actively sold flags and T-shirts with the inscription “Cheats”. In turn, City fans who came to the match brought inflatable bananas - similar to the tradition of the 1980s, when the team flew out of the elite.

Liverpool have conceded three Premier League titles to Manchester City at a time when their rivals were breaking financial rules.

The Premier League confirmed on September 29 that City were found guilty on most counts of violating the league's financial rules between 2009 and 2018. The Commission found that the club entered into fictitious contracts, provided false financial statements, committed serious violations of the spending limits established by the Premier League and UEFA, etc. We are talking about amounts of about £900 million.

Manchester City may face expulsion from the Premier League, admitted the Minister of culture, media and sports of the UK Lisa Nandy.
