Pep post-match reaction: “I am incredibly pleased about the performance we played because Liverpool are an incredible team. After eight years, it was really good to perform in that way. I am so proud of my team." #MCILIV

Van Dijk looks at positives following tough battle with Man City: "It’s no secret we want to challenge for everything we are competing in and this year we are looking consistent something we were missing last year." #MCILIV

City in the last 8

And that's how it finished! Final score at The Etihad: Manchester City 3 ( Haaland 10' Mahrez 47' Ake 48' ) Liverpool 2 ( Carvalho 20' Salah 48' ) City into the quarter finals of the EFL Cup. #MCILIV

Current goalscorers at the Etihad. Haaland 10', Carvalho 20', Mahrez 47', Salah 48' and City regained the lead through Ake on 58. That's how it remains with minutes to go!

Looking forward to the post-match reaction following the thrilling EFL Cup match at the Etihad. Currently 3-2 to Manchester City after 83 minutes - but Liverpool far from out of it! 7 minutes to go, plus added time!

Luis Diaz injured in training and could be out until March. Klopp: "It’s clear it’s a big disappointment for all of us, for him as well. “It was a non-situation in training. Nothing ( really going on ) and then he felt something."

Following the heartbreak of Englands world cup exit two France, we'll inevitably slowly turn our attention back to the EPL. Liverpool take on Aston Villa on December 26th at Villa Park, whereas Manchester City travel to Elland Road Leeds, a day later.

Post-Match reaction: Klopp: “It was a big pressure game. Very intense & we were unlucky in our finishing moments. A bit more unlucky than City. That was one of the main differences They had periods where they dominated but we came back & had big chances.” #LFC #mancity #MCILIV

Wise words from a delighted boss. #LFC #MCFC #mancity #MCILIV

Post-Match reaction - Kompany: “I’m not even worried about the result. I’m buzzing with a tremendous performance. We went toe to toe with a very aggressive and physical team and matched them. It’s still in Liverpool’s hands." #LFC #MCFC #mancity #MCILIV

Post-Match reaction - Stones (on amazing clearance): “I tried to take everything, I spotted the opportunity and I heard it was tight. I'm just happy it didn't go over the line! Those sort of things can change a game.” #LFC #MCFC #mancity #MCILIV
