Manchester City defeated Liverpool 3-0 in their first match since being found guilty of 114 Premier League financial regulation breaches.

Manchester City defeated Liverpool 3-0 at Anfield on Sunday in their first match since being found guilty of breaching 114 Premier League financial regulations. Erling Haaland opened the scoring in the 65th minute, three minutes after Liverpool's Ryan Gravenberch was sent off for a second yellow card. Jeremy Doku and Rayan Cherki then added further goals to secure the victory.

The match took place in a heavily charged atmosphere following the independent commission's ruling on the club's financial breaches. Liverpool fans displayed banners and chanted at City players throughout the game. Footage emerged of Manchester City goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma confronting Liverpool supporters as players headed down the tunnel after the match.

Merseyside Police said ten people were arrested during the game. One man was arrested on suspicion of two offences of assaulting a police constable, with the officer suffering a serious facial injury at around 18:30 BST on Anfield Road. Five fans were arrested on suspicion of tragedy chanting, one on suspicion of being drunk and disorderly and assault, two for affray, and one for throwing items onto the pitch. Chief Inspector Leanne Hobin said the force would continue to work to identify and prosecute those involved in such offences.

City have submitted an appeal contesting their innocence against the verdict. The club also reportedly breached a Premier League rule by not permitting manager Enzo Maresca to speak with radio broadcasters after the match.
