Man City vs Liverpool live stream: How to watch Carabao Cup fixture online and on TV tonight

Man City’s Julian Alvarez was part of Argentina’s World Cup-winning squad

Manchester City narrowly beat Liverpool 3-2 in a Carabao Cup round of 16 thriller, as Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp’s teams played their first competitive fixture since the World Cup.

City’s four-year grip on the Carabao Cup trophy came to an end last season when Liverpool won the competition for the first time in a decade but they got revenge as Erling Haaland, Riyad Mahrez and Nathan Ake all scored for the hosts at the Etihad.

Liverpool had twice hit back after going a goal behind, with Fabio Carvalho and then Mohamed Salah equalising for the visitors, but Ake’s 58th-minute header from Kevin De Bruyne’s incredible cross made the lead stick.

City go into the quarter-final draw later this season alongside the likes of Manchester United, Leicester and Newcastle and will surely now be favourites to go all the way.
