A game whose result was decided by one reckless challenge and the Reds' heads just dropped. The Reds were royally whipped by an all star City team, leading to Klopp's heaviest defeat in his reign as Liverpool manager.
(Considering how Liverpool and Klopp had given up on the game in the second half, we need...
