Erling Haaland delivers Man City verdict after watching win over Liverpool FC from stands

Manchester City striker Erling Haaland praised teammate Jack Grealish for his personal performance in the convincing win over Liverpool on Saturday.

Pep Guardiola's side thrashed the Merseyside outfit 4-1 at the Etihad Stadium, with Julian Alvarez, Kevin De Bruyne, Illkay Gundogan and Grealish all on the scoresheet for the home side. It was the second time the Blues have defeated Liverpool this season - having beat them in the Carabao Cup in December.

Mohamed Salah gave the away side the lead in the first half, but Alvarez made it 1-1 before the break. The Argentine ace converted from close range after Grealish delivered an inviting cross into the penalty area. The Blues went on to score three times in the second period, with Grealish bagging the final goal of the game to cap off an impressive individual performance.
