Liverpool vs Manchester city

Liverpool and Man City meet at Wembley for the the first time since the League Cup final in 2015 where City prevailed and won on penalties.

On August 4, these teams met for the second time at Wembley for the FA Community Shield. Tempers were flaring in the match that most people thought was a glorified friendly.

Former Liverpool player Raheem Sterling gave the champions the lead in a first half they dominated as Liverpool’s shaky pre-season form continued on Sunday. This was his first goal against his former club.

But the European champions Liverpool were quicker and sharper in the second half.

They equalized through Joel Matip’s header and created a bunch of other chances to take the lead as City appeared to tire.

City’s Kyle Walker made a last-ditch goal line clearance from Mo Salah’s effort in the last moments. The match tied at 1-1 with no extra time being played the match went to a penalty shootout.

Man City won the penalty shootout 5-4 after Claudio Bravo saved Georginio Wijnaldum’s penalty.

With yet another trophy won, this means that Pep Guardiola’s side has won the last five trophy’s in England.

Introduce Yourself (Example Post)

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

  • Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
  • Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

  • Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
  • What topics do you think you’ll write about?
  • Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
  • If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
