Man City challenges European football field
(Baonghean.vn) - After a devastating 6-1 victory over Huddersfield, Pep Guardiola and his team are showing that the Premier League title is hard to escape from Man City's hands. They can even go further in Europe this season because Man City's strength is truly admirable.
Knowing their position, the visiting team Huddersfield did not deploy their troops to catch the man but instead huddled together to defend against Man City. However, this passive play did not help them stand firm at the Etihad Stadium, the away team quickly conceded 3 goals in the first half.
Too strong for the rest
When the opponent does not play aggressively, Man City players are free to show off their programmed passing moves. Without conductor Kevin De Bruyne, Man City still operates a smooth style of play. They even play more freely thanks to the mobility of the two strikers Aguero and Jesus up front. But people are surprised by the way Coach Pep Guardiola's students score goals.
In Man City's opening goal, Aguero controlled the ball neatly and then skillfully chipped it over goalkeeper Hamer's head. However, the person who created and initiated the attack for the home team was surprisingly goalkeeper Ederson.

He kicked the ball 80 meters and found Aguero's feet, not many goalkeepers in the Premier League, even in the world can do that. The Brazilian goalkeeper deserves praise for both his tactical vision and his ability to play with his feet. He deserves to be the best goalkeeper in the world at the moment.
After settling down and his son Mateo was healthy, Silva showed his true class with his delicate play and a skillful free kick against Huddersfield. He was the heart of Man City and created a masterpiece free kick himself early in the second half.
Meanwhile, just 75 minutes on the pitch was enough for Aguero to complete his 9th hat-trick in the Premier League. Striker Sergio Aguero deserves a 10 with three goals against goalkeeper Ben Hamer, very delicate and experienced.
If he continues to stay at Etihad Stadium, coach Pep Guardiola can completely help this Arghenti striker catch up and surpass the record of his senior Alan Shearer (11 times).
Not to mention, in the 3-1-4-2 formation on the left wing, coach Pep Guardiola has Mendy playing extremely well, he has a hand in 3/6 goals of the home team. Mendy's playing style is quite simple but the cross is extremely uncomfortable for both the defenders and the Huddersfield goalkeeper, Tenrence's own goal is a proof.
Perfect parameters
Coach David Wagner is a German-American footballer who is not a famous manager and Huddersfield is not a strong team in the Premier League. In the last round at home, they also lost 0-3 to Chelsea but Man City's performance was impeccable.
The home players had 78% possession, 32 shots of which 14 were on target and 6 goals were scored. Silva and his teammates had 759 passes (the away team had 222), with an accuracy rate of 93%, and won 10 corners.

When Huddersfield did not play too aggressively, Man City players played a “cat and mouse” game, they did not give the visitors a chance to approach the ball. Huddersfield’s goal was simply an “accident” in the chaotic situation in front of the goal.
Meanwhile, on the bench, Pep still had a creative Riyad Mahrez, a versatile Sterling and Sane with his monstrous left foot. When he entered the field, Sane immediately scored a goal for himself with his speed.
With a strong squad in all three lines, Man City deserves to be the strongest candidate for the Premier League title. Even after only 2 matches, the top European teams this season have considered this their biggest rival, especially when Kevin De Bruyne returns.
If the Man City empire under the leadership of coach Pep Guardiola successfully defends the Premier League title, it will not surprise anyone. Simply, the Etihad Stadium owners have found the right Spanish coach with personality and talent.
