Liverpool 1-0 Man City

May 5, 2008

Fernando Torres took his tally to 32 goals for the season as Liverpool eased to a win over Manchester City.

Torres left Richard Dunne trailing and angled in a shot to put the Reds ahead just after Martin Petrov’s free-kick hit the post at the other end.

The Reds had chances to wrap up the game but Dirk Kuyt’s header struck the crossbar and Ryan Babel skied a shot.

City rarely threatened but almost punished the home side only for Pepe Reina to save Benjani’s late free-kick.

The visitors had gone into the match with boss Sven-Goran Eriksson expecting to be sacked after the end of the season but he was given firm backing by the club’s fans at Anfield.
