For the Merseysiders, Trent Alexander-Arnold equalized in the 80th minute and Erling Holland took the lead with a strike in the 27th minute.
However, Diogo Jota and Alisson were injured during the match. The goalkeeper’s shot came late in the game and appeared to have injured his hamstring.
Given the nature of the injury, Alisson could be out for several weeks and possibly the rest of the year. Jurgen Klopp spoke to the media (via The Standard) about the issue after the game: “I spoke to him and he said he was feeling a bit but had to wait for the scan.”Liverpool are still awaiting the results of their scans and nothing has been confirmed yet. Alisson has kept five clean sheets in 14 appearances for his club so far this season.
Klopp’s side are currently third in the Premier League with 28 points from 13 games, two points behind leaders Arsenal.
He was injured in the match against Manchester City. Striker Diogo Jota also suffered a muscle problem and had to be replaced by Luis Diaz in the 54th minute of the game. Overall, Jota had a quiet afternoon at the Etihad. But his absence could be a big blow to the team. Regarding Jota, Klopp said after the game (via The Standard): “The shadow of this fight is that Ali felt something and Diogo felt something. We have to judge and we have to wait and see.
“Unfortunately we lost Diogo to a muscle problem.”Jota has made 17 appearances in the competition this season. The Portuguese is Liverpool’s second top scorer this season behind Mohamed Salah (12).
