Salah looked to be walking freely as he trotted down the tunnel. So perhaps Klopp has made that change just to be safe. Liverpool will need their top scorer for the second leg next week.

Liverpool have been forced into a change here and it's a worrying one. Salah has walked down the tunnel.

ACROSS GOAL! What a pass that was from Fernandinho to get Salah in behind the Manchester City defence, but the young German slices his strike right across the face of goal.

SALAH INJURY? This is a worrying sign for Liverpool. The Egyptian looks to have picked up a knock and the hosts might be forced into a change here. It doesn't look good for Salah.

Already, there has been a drop in intensity at the start of the second half. Man City are seeing more of the ball as Liverpool step off them. However, it was like this at the start of the first half.
49'
One change Guardiola has made at the start of the second half is that he has moved De Bruyne to the right wing. The Belgian has been quiet so far. Will this help him make a mark on the game?
48'
So can Liverpool match their intensity of their first half in this secon period? That will be the challenge for Klopp's side. A fourth goal might kill this tie. But will they sit back more?

No changes made by either side at the half time break. Surprised that Sterling hasn't been thrown on. He would have been the natural change for Man City. They have missed him.

Well, well, well. What a first half at Anfield. The tempo and intensity is exactly what we expected from this game, but the scoreline is not. What did you think of that first half? Tweet me!

HALF TIME: Liverpool 3-0 Manchester City. The hosts are in dreamland. They have been rampant in this first half. City can't cope with them in the final third. Can Guardiola turn this around?
48'
HEADER WIDE! That wasn't too far away from being a fourth goal for Liverpool. Van Dijk got on the end of the cross into the City box. He lost his marker, but he directed his effort wide.

The visitors are showing a bit more at the end of the first half, with Otamendi striking at goal from the edge of the box. But it was a snapshot and the ball dribbled past the post.

Two minutes of stoppage time to be played at the end of the first half.
44'
City win a freekick in a dangerous position after a late tackle by Milner. De Bruyne teases the delivery into the box, but the Belgian couldn't find anyone in a light blue shirt.
43'
Manchester City have yet to muster a single shot on target so far. That's arguably the most surprising thing so far. We know Liverpool can score goals, but City have been toothless.

FIRMINO OVER! The Brazilian forward turns with the ball, creates the shooting space for himself 20 yards out, but his left-footed drive flashes over the bar. Ederson wasn't worried.
