Liverpool defeated Manchester City 1-0 thanks to Mohamed Salah’s sensational second-half goal in a tense match at Anfield that also saw Jurgen Klopp sent off.

After both teams struggled to create clear-cut chances, Juve striker Dusan Vlahovic scored a late goal to secure a 1-0 win over Torino in Serie A on Saturday. The Bianconeri and manager Massimiliano Allegri were under pressure following their 2-0 Champions League loss to Maccabi Haifa, but a lacklustre first-half performance gave the injury-plagued visitors little reason to be optimistic. The first 45 minutes of the Turin derby were difficult for both sides, with Torino’s few half-chances around the box being snuffed out by the Juve defence. After 34 minutes, Vlahovic had the first real chance, but his compatriot Vanja Milinkovic-Savic made…
