City win sealed with a kiss after resilience of Guéhi twists title race | Andy Hunter

Manchester City's victory at Anfield has sent shockwaves through the title race, with Pep Guardiola's team now just six points clear of Liverpool after Dominik Szoboszlai's 74th-minute goal seemed to all but seal a comeback. However, a stunning second half from Manchester City saw them pull off one of the most dramatic comebacks in Premier League history.

The turning point came when Erling Haaland converted a penalty six minutes before the end of normal time, followed by an equaliser by Szoboszlai which seemed to set the tone for Liverpool's resurgence. But Guéhi's crucial block on Curtis Jones just past the hour mark marked a decisive moment in City's revival. He marshaled his defense admirably after a lackluster first half and held firm despite numerous Liverpool attacks.

In a match marred by controversy, Guéhi was subjected to hostility from Anfield fans for whom he represented an unfulfilled transfer target last summer. It is mystifying that the jeering crowd failed to see out his performance when City were struggling to keep possession in the first half. As such, his defensive prowess and ability to marshal his team will be crucial as the title chase intensifies.

After what seemed like a crushing defeat just hours earlier, Guardiola's kiss from heaven above Anfield's delirious supporters indicated that there is still life left in this title run. The City manager has guided his team through treacherous waters and emerged stronger for it, with Guéhi playing an integral role alongside other crucial contributors such as Bernardo Silva and Donnarumma.

The resilience shown by Guéhi has earned him a spot among the top defenders on Guardiola's team, and many believe that he will be remembered fondly by City fans after this memorable performance.
