Manchester City confirmed their renewed form by crushing West Ham (4-1).
For many weeks, Manchester City has become easy prey in the Premier League. Having won only 2 of his last 14 matches in all competitions, the reigning English champion has suffered a violent downgrade for several months. In great difficulty, the Skyblues carried many uncertainties before hosting West Ham this Saturday, despite the sluggish victory last week against Leicester (0-2). However, the meeting against the Hammers ultimately turned into a health walk. From the start, the locals were able to rely on an active Savinho to quickly open the score. Found on the left by Bernardo Silva, the former Girona forward sent a fleeing cross which pushed Coufal to mark his side (10th).
Despite a slight slowdown, the Cityzens came back strong before the break under the leadership of the Brazilian. Brilliant at the start of the match, the man who scored his first goal with City last week sent a perfect cross towards Haaland for the second goal of the match just before the break (2-0, 42nd). Returning from the locker room, the Norwegian striker, heavily criticized in recent weeks, even scored a double with a clever lob after a caviar from… Savinho (55th). Three minutes later, Phil Foden added to the score with a clear strike (4-0, 58th). The reduction of the gap by Niclas Fullkrug at the dawn of the last quarter of an hour of play (71st) will not have changed anything and Manchester City therefore offered themselves a large and valuable success which allows them to fill up on trust. In the standings, Pep Guardiola’s men remain in sixth place but remain in contact with the European places.
