In short
- Haaland, Doku and Cherki scored as Manchester City beat Liverpool 3–0 at Anfield on October 11, 2026, after Ryan Gravenberch’s dismissal.

Manchester City beat Liverpool 3–0 at Anfield on October 11, 2026, with Erling Haaland, Jérémy Doku and Rayan Cherki scoring after the home side were reduced to ten men.
The result kept City’s winning start to the Premier League season intact. Match reports from The Guardian, Sky Sports and Al Jazeera agreed on the score; Liverpool’s official report also confirmed the defeat.
Liverpool midfielder Ryan Gravenberch received a second yellow card in the 62nd minute after a challenge on Doku. The dismissal changed a match that had remained goalless through the first half.
Doku, introduced as a substitute, helped City turn their numerical advantage into goals. Haaland opened the scoring before Doku added the second and Cherki completed the victory.
Liverpool had threatened after the interval, with goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma saving efforts from Lewis Koumas and Gravenberch. City then took control following the sending-off, leaving Liverpool unable to recover.
The match was City’s first Premier League appearance following the independent commission’s financial-rules verdict. That separate dispute remains subject to the club’s appeal.
