Pep Guardiola has heaped praise on his players for their outstanding performance against Liverpool.
Manchester City beat league leaders Liverpool 2-1 at the Etihad Stadium in yesterday's encounter.
Goals from Sergio Aguero and Leroy Sane helped Mancity to carry the day, with Roberto Firmino scoring the consolation goal for Liverpool.
"The game was a real game for both sides, we beat an incredible team," Guardiola told Sky Sports.
"We were outstanding from the first minute. We are happy for this victory to reduce the gap. Everything is open.
"Liverpool don't concede goals, and we scored two. We played with courage, so aggressive in our pressing. They are incredibly fast in behind, so dangerous.
"If we lost today it is almost done, it would be so difficult. But we are four points behind them and they are the leaders. We have to fight a lot, but this gives us a lot of confidence."
