Man City beat 10-man Liverpool 3-0 at Anfield to go six wins from six; full Matchweek 6 results, the table and what is next
Manchester City kept their perfect Premier League start going on Sunday, October 11, 2026, with a 3-0 win at Anfield. Liverpool held City at 0-0 for about an hour before Ryan Gravenberch was sent off for a second yellow card, a decision NBC Sports called harsh. City scored three times in the next 20 minutes. It was their sixth straight win under new manager Enzo Maresca, and it puts them top of the table after Matchweek 6, the first round of fixtures after the international break.
For the first 60 minutes, a Liverpool side missing several key players was good value for a goalless game, according to NBC Sports. Then came the turning point:
City had 65% of the possession and 15 shots to Liverpool's 10, though Liverpool had slightly more shots on target (five against four) in the match data. Doku in particular was described as unplayable after coming on.
