Watch Manchester City Manager Pep Guardiola Fall to His Knees As Mohamed Salah Scores for Liverpool

• Pep Guardiola was livid as Mohamed Salah's goal for Liverpool went in during their match on Sunday
• The Manchester City head coach was captured by a fan dramatically falling to his knees as the goal flew in
• Guardiola's side suffered their first defeat of the season, meaning they've won just twice at Anfield in the last 22 seasons

Pep Guardiola could not believe his eyes when Mohamed Salah's goal went in following a long-range pass from Liverpool keeper Alisson.

Salah's goal ended up inflicting the first loss of the season to Manchester City in a breathless encounter at Anfield, which will go down as a Premier League classic.

In the build-up to the huge Anfield clash, Guardiola had tipped Liverpool to be their biggest test this season, and he was proven right, according to Sky Sports.

City did not display the usual swagger that has seen them sweep aside teams this season. The Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne link-up did not click aside from sporadic passes.

Pep Guardiola's priceless reaction

In a video captured by a supporter and posted on Twitter, Guardiola could be seen asking his player to mark Salah, who was on his way towards the goal.

The Egyptian was waiting for Alisson's incredible pass to drop. When it did, Salah left Joao Cancelo for dead before sprinting towards an oncoming Ederson before striking past the Brazilian.

When the goal went in, Guardiola fell to his knees, perhaps to rue Cancelo's awful defending and conceding late in the game.

City certainly have the qualities to bounce back, but this win could be the start of Liverpool's revival after a terrible start to the season.

Guardiola wary of Liverpool threat

Sports Brief earlier reported on Guardiola saying that Liverpool's match would be their toughest test yet despite Jurgen Klopp's side's indifferent start to the season.
