Despite being pressured, the Manchester City bent her resistance Wolves, defeating her with 1-0 at the Etihad for the 16th game of the Premier League and was four points behind second-placed Liverpool, with more play.
After a “poor” first half, where the best moment of the “citizens” was recorded in 10 ‘, with the effort of Bernardo Silva, the phase that was to shape the final result was recorded in his delays.
Where Raul Jimenez saw the yellow card twice in one minute, first for a foul and then for… blocking his execution, leaving the visitors with one player less throughout the rest of the match…
In the replay, Manchester clearly made more phases, while they managed to find the edge thanks to a penalty that won for a hand by Joao Moutinho in a cross by Bernardo Silva in the 63rd minute.
A penalty that was strongly disputed by the Wolves, however, was confirmed by the VAR and executed accurately by Sterling three minutes later, with the English winger reaching at the same time 100 goals in his career in the English championship!
The hosts could have scored more goals before the match, but Grillis, Silva and Sterling proved to be unlucky, with 1-0 still being enough for Pep Guardiola’s team.
