"April Fools Day Massacre" - Manchester City 4 Liverpool 1
A painful watch if you're a Liverpool Red but rather more sweet if you're a Manchester City Blue!
Alas.
Without further ado, the link immediately below is for my pride and joy and first self-published book on the Mighty Reds of Liverpool together with further links to support me, if you are able, to thumb the eye of traditional publishers who refused to read my original manuscript!

MANCHESTER CITY 4 (Álvarez 28, De Bruyne 46, Gündoğan 53, Grealish 74)
LIVERPOOL 1 (Salah 17)
"There was a period of ten minutes or so, though it felt like an eternity, mid-way through the second half this afternoon, when the defending Premier League Champions Manchester City simply didn’t allow the visiting Reds from Liverpool a kick of the ball.
At 3–1 up after trailing 0–1, City had simply slowed the game to a snail’s pace of utter footballing control whereby there seemed to be 12 or 13 light blue shirts on the field and there was always, always a spare man ready to receive the next pass around and through a bedraggled, beaten and thoroughly demoralised Liverpool.
Then İlkay Gündoğan, the Manchester City captain, scorer of their third goal and arguable “Man of the Match” ahead of so many others vying for that title today in a light blue shirt, impudently sprayed yet another imperious cross field pass to eventual goal scorer, and City’s fourth, Jack Grealish, on the left wing.
Following his instant control and lay off pass to an overlapping Kevin De Bruyne, scorer of today’s killer second goal just seconds inside the second half, Grealish continued his run past Trent Alexander-Arnold to receive the Belgian’s return pass before sweeping a majestic finish past a helpless Alisson Becker in the Reds goal.
This goal, City’s fourth and final in an April Fools Day massacre and footballing masterclass, was just as mercurial, just as brilliantly created, just as majestically swept cross field from one side of the pitch to the other, just as much of a team goal as the other three that had come before it and the final seal on as comprehensive victory as you could wish to see.
If, that is, your heart is light blue rather than my beaten red one".
