Many interesting confrontations were on Wednesday in the second round of the UEFA Champions League, and one of them accurately attracted the attention of fans, as they would attract bags with money that someone inadvertently left the open sky on the azure coast. The duel of French Monaco and English Manchester City – and what kind of associations can cause a meeting of these teams, except that Bernard Silva returned to Louis II, where he once played so bright that they paid attention to the British islands.

However, this time it was somehow not to the sentiments of each party. “Monegaski” under Adi Gutter lost the first game of Bruges (1: 4), while the “locals” beat the champion of Italy Napoli (2: 0), but from the team of Hosep Guardiola still expected the next step, because it was quite interesting this year.

That is why City was noticeably in a hurry to raise all the questions about the winner in this pair and found a quick goal for 15 minutes. Guardiol threw it into the penalty area from the left flank, and the Dutch not only caught, but immediately to the touch of the ball over the goalkeeper, which was late with the exit from the gate.

However, no one allowed to straighten the shoulders of the English Atlanta against the background of this success. Moreover, the awning of his gorgeous long -haul from the area before the penalty area in the left nine in three minutes later, the ambitions of the guest collective and Donnarumma in particular. However, on the quality of the Italian goalkeeper it was still a slight influence, and in the future he repeatedly saved his team from problems.

Although City, at least, did almost everything dependent so that we did not think about any potential problems in the context of Guardiola. Twice Foden and Reinders hit the crossbar of other people’s gates, constantly exacerbated through the flanks, and Dutch eventually scored his and command second goal in this game in the 44th minute, when O’Rayli used from the left flank.

In general, the normal such match for the benefits of Manchester club in terms of attack, but Monaco was enough to simply be constantly somewhere next to its own sharpness in the attack. Donnarumma was periodically checked by Balogun and Akliusz strikes, and about a quarter of an hour before the end of the main time, the guests generally began to dry the game. However, before the end, they did not prove their business – in the unsuccessful attempt to get ahead of the game head from a giving in the center of the penalty room, he was beaten in the last minutes, after which the victim was performed by a penalty shot into the right corner. And they dispersed.

Manchester City: Donnarumma – Stonez (Nunes, 72), Diash, Guardiol, O’RAIL – SILVA, RODRI (Gonzalez, 60), Reinders – Foden, Daland, Dock (Savio, 60).

Warning: Donnarumma, Rodry, Silva, Savio
