Champions League: Steven Gerrard  Speaks On Liverpool 3-0 Win Over Manchester City

Liverpool legend, Steven Gerrard has reacted to his former side’s Champions League demolition of Manchester City on Wednesday night.

Gerrard has hailed the Reds for their performance in the 3-0 demolition of Manchester City, but said the team needs to be humble.

Gerrard said the squad must know the job is only half done.

Mohamed Salah opened the scoring in the 12th minute; Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain netted a long-range screamer, while Sadio Mane added a third before half-time to stun City.

Gerrard told BT Sport, “The Liverpool players and manager will all come out and be humble because there’s another 90 minutes to play.

“But I think secretly and in that dressing room they will be delighted with that result and the performance.

“I think we’ve seen both sides of Liverpool tonight.

“The pressing side, with their aggressive on the front foot and excellent on the regain and the counter attack.

“And second half they ring the 18-yard box, they were excellent to a man defensively.

“And basically they forced City to run out of ideas.”

The second leg of the Champions League quarter-final tie takes place at the Etihad next Tuesday.

Before that Liverpool face arch-rivals Everton in a Merseyside derby on Saturday lunchtime in the Premier League.
