Second place Arsenal aided Liverpool’s lead extension after losing 1-0 at home to West Ham on Saturday.
In his post match interview, Slot said his team defended really well against City, adding that some good moments in the counter-attack ensured Liverpool won the game.
“If you play away at the Etihad, if you win there it is always a big win, no matter what the league table looks like,” Slot said.
“If you play away from home against a Pep [Guardiola] team it is almost impossible to have more ball possession than his team has.
“We knew we had to defend a lot and that’s what we did really well and then some good moments in the counter-attack led to us winning the game.”
Liverpool will face Newcastle United on Wednesday at Anfield.
