On a day when Everton surfed the passion of an emotional day at Goodison Park, and Manchester City huffed and puffed, Phil Foden delivered a winning goal that could prove crucial in the title race.
It looked like the Blues were heading for more dropped points until the 21-year-old pounced on a mistake by an exhausted Everton defence.
With Liverpool fans relishing the thought that their neighbours from across Stanley Park might inflict another big dent in City’s previously impregnable armour, Foden ’s goal could be a turning point.
