Treble with a reversal and Alvares against Red Star for City!

The effort to keep the scepters in the Champions League started with a victory for the Manchester City, who beat Red Star 3-1 at home, with a twist.

The “citizens” had the upper hand from the first minute but were unable to open the score, with the team of the -basic- Huang to freeze “Etihad” in the 45th minute, when o Bukari scored in four to make it 1-0 for the Serbs! In fact, the goal was initially disallowed for offside, but after using VAR, it counted normally.

The joy of the guests, however, lasted a while, as in the 46th Alvares equalized with a fine close range effort. And in the 60th minute, the Argentinian scored for the reversal with a free kick that… was drowned out by Glazer – even though Walker’s goal had been disallowed in the 53rd minute.

Pep Guardiola’s team sealed the victory in the 73rd minute, when o Rodri he made it 3-1 with a nice spot-kick, ending any hopes the visitors had of a surprise.
