Manchester City winger Leroy Sane has said that the pressure is now on Liverpool as well.
In the aftermath of Manchester City‘s intense 2-1 win over the Reds, Sane, who scored the winning goal, was happy with his team’s effort.
“We have put more pressure on Liverpool. We’re just four points behind them – and they know it, too,” Sane said. “They have to keep up, but we also have to keep up. It’s now a little bit more interesting. It was really important to win a game at home against Liverpool. It gives you more confidence to know we are closer and it’s not over already.”
The players all felt how intense it was,” said the German winger. “We are always going to fight until the end, it doesn’t matter what the result is. We always want to score, to show who we are and how we play. We ran a lot and fought a lot, and everyone could see how much we wanted to win the game. It was really tense.”
“You could see in every tackle, every pass, that everyone was really focused on the game. One wrong pass, one mistake, and you get really punished. It was one of the biggest performances since I came here. Liverpool are, at the moment, maybe the best team in Europe or the world, so we were happy we could beat them.”
