On Matchday 29 of the English Premier League, the championship leader at home hosted Wolverhampton, who were stuck in the middle of the standings.
From the first minutes, the game passed according to the scenario of Guardiola’s team, in which for the first time in a long time there was no place for our Alexander Zinchenko. The “Lobos” conceded in the 15th minute. After a powerful cross from Marez’s wing, Dendonker sent the ball into his own net.
It was clear that Guardiola’s team was operating in economic mode. Who knows, maybe the game would have ended with a minimal victory for the “villagers”, but the “wolves” decided to show their teeth, and they did well. At the start of the second half, team captain Cody tied the score on the scoreboard, closing off a free kick pass from Moutinho.
The hosts reacted immediately to the conceded ball and literally bombarded the opponent with attacks. Patricio threw all the punches, but in the 80th minute not even he could save his team. Marez found Walker with an excellent pass, shot in the middle of the players, from whom the ball flew a little back. Jesus was the first to get his bearings and finished the “round” on the net.
In the 90th minute, Marez eliminated all questions about the winner. And in the closing seconds, Jesús made a double, finishing the ball at the net after hitting Gundogan and saving Patricio.
Manchester City carried their winning streak to 21 matches in a row in all competitions. Guardiola’s undefeated streak reached 28 games. In four days he will receive Manchester United in the same stadium.
For Wolverhampton, this is the first loss in the last six league games. Santa’s team remained on the 12th line. In the next round they will have an away match against Aston Villa.
