The Citizens made the difference with a win in the match they played this Tuesday at the Etihad Stadium against B. Munich, within the framework of key 3 of the UEFA – Champions League 2022-2023 tournament. The goals for the local were scored by Rodri (26′ 1T), Bernardo Silva (24′ 2T) and Erling Haaland (31′ 2T).
Erling Haaland made the stadium vibrate with his definition, in the 31st minute of the second stage. After receiving an assist from John Stones, the forward placed it to the right post and below. Impossible for the goalkeeper!
Rodri was the figure of the party. The Manchester City midfielder was the author of 1 goal, hit 49 correct passes, removed 3 balls and shot on goal 2 times.
Another relevant player in the match was Rúben Dias. The Manchester City defender was important, winning 3 balls and shooting 4 balls outside the danger area.
The match stood out for its intensity and the fouls committed during the match. There were 3 cautioned: Bernardo Silva, Alphonso Davies and Benjamin Pavard.
Man City manager Josep Guardiola laid out a 3-6-1 strategy with Ederson in goal; Manuel Akanji, Rúben Dias and Nathan Aké on the defensive line; John Stones, Rodri, Bernardo Silva, Kevin De Bruyne, Ilkay Gündogan and Jack Grealish in the middle; and Erling Haaland in attack.
For their part, those led by Thomas Tuchel stopped with a 4-5-1 scheme with Yann Sommer under the three sticks; Benjamin Pavard, Dayot Upamecano, Matthijs de Ligt and Alphonso Davies in defense; Leon Goretzka, Joshua Kimmich, Kingsley Coman, Jamal Musiala and Leroy Sané in midfield; and Serge Gnabry up front.
The judge selected for the match at the Etihad Stadium was Jesús Gil Manzano.
