Martin Skrtel
started with a fine goal but finished with a disastrous mistake that
allowed Carlos Tevez to score Manchester City's second equaliser against
Liverpool.
Yaya Toure got Roberto Mancini's side on level terms at Anfield after Skrtel's opener but Luis Suarez fired the Reds ahead.
But Skrtel
threw away Brendan Rodgers' precious point with a careless back-pass
which fell to Tevez who rounded Pepe Reina and rolled the ball home.
More to follow.
