Manchester City footballers won in the first match of the Champions League quarterfinal 2021/2022 over Atletico Madrid 1: 0 on Tuesday.
With the triumph over Athletics, Manchester City could increase its chances of winning treble, thus imitating a bit of the city rival United. In 1999, he won the most prestigious European club competition, the Premier League and the FA Cup. Pep Guardiol’s charges had the upper hand in the first half, but Atletica’s granite defense did not let them stand a chance. The “Citizens” got to six shots, but neither of them headed into the goal area and the goalless score was the logical outcome of what was happening on the lawn. Llorente tried to open it, but Ederson was quick to respond to the guests.
After an hour of play, the home stopper Laporte had a goal on his head, but he sent the ball just above the crossbar. In the end, the triple rotation helped the city a lot. After a while, the new man Foden pushed his vertical up behind the defense of De Bruyne, who overcame the Cloud up close. With 81 minutes played, a phenomenal play on the left side freed Fodena, of Atodica, to dash through and score another goal for the visitors.
