Manchester City won 1-2 at Wolverhampton. The Cityzens relied on the agility of their defenders to emerge.
Difficult to do, on paper, more unbalanced than this match between Wolverhampton and Manchester City. Where the Cityzens are once again fighting for the title, the Wolves are having a catastrophic start to the season, with only one small point collected.
Even on a less good day, City continues
But whether in a championship as tough as the Premier League or even elsewhere, moving to the bottom can sometimes turn into a trap. After barely 7 minutes, Wolverhampton opened the scoring with a goal from Jorgen Strand Larsen.
Back in the eleven, Jérémy Doku helped Pep Guardiola’s troops get back into the game shortly after the half-hour mark. But let’s not oversell his assists: the Red Devil will surely deliver some of the most memorable in his career. It’s that on action, it’s good If Guardiol who does all the work.
Already the author of some sumptuous goals, the Croatian defender did it again with an absolutely delicious curling shot from outside the rectangle (1-1).
Hanging on until the end, Manchester City had to wait until the final moments of added time to snatch victory thanks to John Stones. A big blow to the head of the Wolves, heroic from start to finish but empty-handed again.
