There's bravery and then there's attempting to control the game against a high-octane Liverpool. City can be proud that they didn't wilt
“Sooner or later with this stadium, you have 15 or 20 minutes and it looks like a tsunami, coming for everybody who has the ball,” Pep Guardiola said after ’s 1-1 draw with at Anfield. Imagine conceding a throw-in near the halfway line after about eight minutes and having the crowd, especially the thousands of people now shouting in your face, stand up and rally like it is a last-minute corner in the biggest game of the season.
If there is bravery on a football pitch, beyond diving into a 50-50 with your head, it is taking four or five touches on the edge of your own box at Anfield to wait for one or even two players to close in, and then playing the right ball at the right time so your team can race up the other end. City did that so well in the opening 15 minutes that they created four fast breaks from their own possessions.
