In this โปรโมชั่น ufabet game, “The Blues” got Kevin De Bruyne back into the starting lineup again, while Erling Haaland scored a goal to increase confidence before the Champions League game against Real Madrid.
At the end of this match, Manchester City had accumulated 73 points from 32 matches, rising to the top of the table, 2 points clear of Arsenal and Liverpool, but having played 1 match more than both teams.
Here are the points we saw from the latest game at the Etihad Stadium:
Rodri gets the rest he needs.
Rodri said in an interview before this game that he would like to rest more. After fighting hard and Pep Guardiola responded by resting the Spanish midfielder as only a substitute.
It wasn’t just Rodri who was dropped to the bench. As Bernardo Silva, Phil Foden and Jack Grealish were all named as substitutes as well. And it’s very good that all three don’t have to go on the field before. “The Blues” will duel with Real Madrid.
Rodri is undeniably an important force for Manchester City. Because when he doesn’t actually play The team usually doesn’t win. But this time, besides him, he didn’t have to be tired. Also got a full rest. It shows the depth of the former champions who can really replace each other in every position.
John Stones injured?!
After scanning the list of players, John Stones, the key defender, was not named. Even though he started in the game against Real Madrid.
However, after the game, Guardiola revealed that he removed Stones’ name only as a precaution. Because the players had only a few problems. But he doesn’t want to risk sending him onto the field. When the team still has Manuel Akanji and Ruben Dias fit and ready to start.
Moreover, Guardiola also received good news as Kyle Walker and Nathan Ake recovered from injury and were named as substitutes. Even though neither of them were sent onto the field.
Julian Alvarez deserves a reserve this minute.
Julian Alvarez was given the chance to start after Foden, Bernardo and Grealish were only substitutes. But because of part of his role. He was unable to create as much impact as he should have.
The Argentinian star was deployed as a right winger. But it closed in because Rico Lewis rose so high it looked like it was a wing.
Even though he assisted Mateo Kovacic in scoring a beautiful goal. But outside of that, Alvarez struggled to create chances and find opportunities to shine, even in the final 10 minutes when he played as a striker in place of Haaland.
To be honest, his recent performance deserves to be more of a reserve. And it wouldn’t be surprising if Alvarez was put on the bench again in the game against Real Madrid.
Jeremy Dogu releases
Jeremy Doku has been criticized quite a bit for his recent performance. Even though dribbling is a highlight that creates problems for opposing defenses. But the final decision was a problem he couldn’t solve.
And this game is once again like that. Especially in the first half, the Belgian winger had some nice moments to fight against Luton’s defence, but stumbled and took the chance.
However, in the second half it looked like he had been tutored heavily, allowing Dogu to let go and look more relaxed when he got the ball. and was involved in the last three goals of the team
Starting with calling a penalty for Haaland to kill and gain confidence. Then used his unique ability to drag the dribble into the penalty area and shoot through the hands of Thomas Kaminski, finally paying for Guardiol to score a beautiful goal to close the box.
With form like this, City fans are hoping he can continue when they meet Real Madrid in the middle of this week.
