““Manchester City” defeated the team from the fourth strongest division of England”, — write: sport.ua
Manchester City’s 29-year-old midfielder Jack Grealish scored his first goal for the team after nearly a year without scoring. However, his goal was scored from the penalty spot in a match against English League Two side Salford.
The 49th-minute penalty was Grealish’s first goal since December 2023, when he scored against Crystal Palace.
Since then, his role in the team has diminished significantly and he has been left on the bench on numerous occasions, the subject of comments from Pep Guardiola, who has stated that Grealish must fight for his place in the starting line-up.
Jack Grealish himself has not commented on his ineffectiveness in the past.
In the match, “Manchester City” defeated “Salford” with a score of 8:0.
