Both teams started the match at a leisurely pace. The City took possession of the ball, but the first 20 minutes did not arrive at moments of danger. On the right flank, Sterling was active, well assisted by Walker, but the scoring opened from the left.

Oleksandr Zinchenko’s opponent, who was in reserve the whole game, Canselo, made a pass to Silva and a small Portuguese head hit Sommera – 0: 1!

It is worth noting that during the entire first half, Borussia did not land a single shot at Ederson’s goal.

After the break, the situation on the field of the “Pushkash-Arena” stadium has not changed. City were very confident in ball possession and even at a leisurely pace managed to score a second goal. In the 65th minute, after a cross from his teammate, Silva did not finish, but he already gave it to Jesús, who did not miss – 0: 2! One of the weakest games for Marco Rose’s team in recent years. But they also had one of the strongest opponents!

The return leg of these teams will take place on March 16 in Manchester.
