The kick and rush beaten by positional play.
After the title of club world champion, Manchester City resumed good national habits by winning on the Everton pitch (1-3) this Wednesday. Dominant, Pep Guardiola’s men struggled to find the fault in the first half. Jordan Pickford had to work against Julian Álvarez (4th), make a double save in front of Matheus Nunes and the Argentine center forward (15th), before disgusting Jack Grealish (24th). Following several inaccuracies in their camp, the Citizens were punished by the realism of Sean Dyche’s team. Rodri, guilty of a first loss of ball launching the opposing offensive, loses the leather again in the area while Dwight McNeil takes advantage and crosses for Jack Harrison who finishes with one touch (1-0, 29th). The scorer, who passed through City without ever having a chance, then asks Ederson, forcing him to relax with the opposite hand (32nd).
More enterprising after returning from the locker room, Manchester City managed to equalize with a long shot from Phil Foden which landed flush with the post (1-1, 53e). Álvarez, for his part, stumbles once again on Pickford despite the quality of his free kick (61st), before beating him from the penalty spot in the process (1-2, 64e). THE Skyblues then held firm by confiscating the ball from their opponents, thus avoiding putting themselves in danger due to the few defensive deficiencies seen at the end of the calendar year. On a high recovery, Bernardo Silva even allows himself to drive the point home with a precise attempt at the corner of the area, finishing in Everton’s empty goal (1-3, 86e). Finally, Foden saw his shot crash into the post (90th+1), then another one being released by Pickford (90th+4).
In diesel mode during the holidays.
