As Diogo Jota finished off a fine Liverpool move to equalise against Man City, he once again highlighted his importance to the Reds. His 13th minute strike to peg City back to 1-1 came after a less than ideal start for Liverpool.
The Portuguese attacker’s surprise selection after the recent form of Luis Diaz paid off for Jurgen Klopp and it was another example of his big-game nature.
The goal was Jota’s fifth in eight matches against big six sides this season and his ninth against the same opposition since the start of the 2020-21 campaign.
