During his visit to the Cherries, Phil Foden put a single cherry on the cake for Manchester City’s victory. This Saturday, a goal from the English international decided the duel with Bournemouth (0-1), from the 26th round of the Premier League.
In a game in which the Portuguese Rúben Dias, Matheus Nunes and Bernardo Silva were starters in the team led by Pep Guardiola, the only goal of the game came in the 24th minute.
In the rebound of Haaland’s first shot, which was blocked by goalkeeper Neto, Foden appeared loose at the second post to put the ball into the back of the goal.
Fuden with another accurate shot 😏

The triumph, tangential, proved to be very difficult for the Manchester blues. Bournemouth fought hard until the end and increased the danger near Ederson’s goal in the final minutes, with some approaches and opportunities to make it 1-1.
Matheus Nunes came off in the 63rd minute for Doku and Bernardo Silva received a yellow card in the 87th minute, by which time Guardiola had also replaced Haaland and Kovacic for Julián Álvarez and Kevin de Bruyne.

City ended up holding the minimum advantage and having some ball in the six minutes of added time, thus reaching 59 points. They are one behind leaders Liverpool, who have 60. Bournemouth remain with 28 points, in 14th place. After a long period between November and December with six wins and a draw in seven rounds, the team coached by Andoni Iraola has gone seven consecutive rounds without victories (three draws and four defeats, since December 31).
This Saturday, Marco Silva’s Fulham won on their visit to Manchester United.
