???? A former Belgian football phenomenon ices Manchester City thanks to an assist from elsewhere – All football

Jérémy Doku and Timothy Castagne had plenty of time to greet each other before the start of this Manchester City – Fulham: as often in recent weeks, the two Red Devils started the match on the bench.

Raul Jimenez’s little gem for Andreas Pereira

Other acquaintances of Belgian football were, however, lined up at Fulham: Sander Berge and Andreas Pereira were there. It is especially the last city which stood out.

A Belgian international until U17 while he was showing great promise at Manchester United, the native of Duffel opened the scoring just before the half-hour mark. The one who has since become a Brazilian international was served with an unexpected backheel by Raul Jimenez.

Unfortunately for him and the Cottagers, the advantage was short-lived: five minutes later, Mateo Kovacic came through to equalize.
