UEFA Champions League match Sevilla vs Man City 06.09.2022. Preview and stats followed by live commentary, video highlights and match report.
Eventually, the ball found Foden and he could have slipped in Haaland, who was again in space, but he reversed a quality finish into the far corner. If he can adjust to the way we play there, then the level is going to go up. "I think the way he has adapted to us is really good. Haaland stretched out his athletic frame and poked the ball home from close range for his 11th goal of what has been a remarkable start to his City career. There should have been more in Seville but his team-mates, bar De Bruyne it seems, are still struggling to fire direct balls across the box or into Haaland's feet. The Norway striker has now scored 25 goals in just 20 Champions League appearances. Foden was involved in the third, and Haaland's second, when some more quick footwork set up a strike that Bono tamely parried clear straight into his path. As the play developed down the right edge of the box with Joao Cancelo, Haaland made three separate runs into pockets of space in the box and demanded the cross. Sevilla, who had lost three of their four La Liga games this season and looked devoid of any confidence, decided to throw on two attackers in the second half to try and push Man City back. City, who were at their slick best, made the game ultra-safe on 67 minutes when Haaland tapped home after Foden's shot was parried meaning the Norway striker has now scored 25 goals in just 20 Champions League appearances. He got his goal on 58 minutes when reversing a no-look finish into the far corner from the edge of the area. He partnered Ruben Dias with John Stones out injured and Sergio Gomez played down the left.

“He scored two in the centre and had chances for two or three more. I think his numbers in all his career are quite similar. “I didn’t say I don’t prefer to have him! But only winning the Champions League for the first time will make City’s season a complete success after so many years of painful failure in the competition. Sometimes we want to rush so quick because Erling is there,” Guardiola said.

Pep Guardiola and Manchester City begin their latest bid for Champions League glory at Sevilla.
There's a debut for Manuel Akanji and a full debut for Sergio Gomez in the back four, with Kyle Walker and John Stones absent through injury. It's an inviting cross and Haaland thrusts out a leg at the back post for his 11th of the season and 24th in 20 Champions League appearances. Grealish seems to really like the look of Navas and shimmies inside again to tee up his team-mate. His shots might be all over the shop at the moment but his radar for a final ball is unwavering. Mir makes a bit of a nuisance of himself in the City box but Guardiola's men are able to break. All hands to the pump as Papu Gomez fouls Silva on the edge of his own box. Suso lifted it in with Ederson out of his ground, but the City keeper got a slight shove in the back from Dolberg as he attempted to throw it out. It results in his namesake Papu having Sevilla's best chance of the night, but he hacks a bouncing ball over. A goal and a couple of assists amount to a solid if not spectacular start to the Premier League season from Foden. 51st minute: Now Cancelo has a go and scuffs wide from outside the box. 73rd minute: Alvarez is quickly into the thick of things, finding De Bruyne for a left-footed strike that's deflected behind. There's a long way to go in this Champions League campaign but City are off and running in emphatic fashion.
Erling Haaland's remarkable run of goals continued as he smashed two past Sevilla in an easy win for Man City on their latest quest for UCL glory.
After an expectedly crushing defeat Tuesday, they have little time to regroup before facing Espanyol away in LaLiga (Saturday, E+) and then traveling to FC Copenhagen for Champions League matchday 2 (Sept. on all fronts as they host the always dangerous Tottenham in the Premier League on Saturday, with Antonio Conte's side having the measure of them in recent meetings. But it makes it more exciting that if he can adjust to the way we play, then the level is going to go up and that is what we demand from him. "The way he has adapted to us is really good, but I think outside the scoring there is another part in the game and I think that part is maybe more tough to adapt to. He scored twice in the first leg in Spain and on his return with Man City scored another two goals Tuesday night. Lopetegui has done such an impressive job that he was in the conversation to become the next Oh, and Haaland has also scored in each of his past five games, which is bad news for Tottenham, who visit the Etihad Stadium on Saturday in the Premier League.

Manchester City academy are taking on the challenge of rebuilding after a summer with a number of high profile departures.
So to see them, again, adapt to the challenges they face and finish so strongly was very pleasing. And Barry-Murphy pointed to Borges, and fellow winger Dire Mebude, as players who personify the conveyor belt of talent coming through the academy. So now we have to step up and do the job. So we're very proud of the success that Romeo's had and Sam Edozie's start and it kind of gives us a lot of satisfaction within the academy that they can do so well away from the club because we got so many players doing well at our own club. It's football and we just have to do it as a team. And you can show how well it works by how understanding or how connected you are as a as a group. He then added: "No, obviously the standard of our first team is so high I think a lot of our lads get so much exposure over there. So they're separate parts of the club but all very much our players." Now it's next game, go again, go again. Go again." That has left a rather young Elite Development Squad, who are without most of their best players from last season.
