Haaland beats Sevilla with another precision exercise

City has Haland. A beast. Three shots on goal in Andalusia and two goals. And Sevilla came out without forwards, exhausting, who knows, the last days of Julen Lopetegui in Nervión, who lived a terrible night with the public that ended up asking for the resignation of President José Castro.

The match only had the light blue color of the English team, where Guardiola opened the door of ownership to kanjia newcomer to the defense axis, together with Sergio Gomez, a product of the Barça academy, now recycled as a left back. He governed the City with authority the Andalusian night, elevating that overwhelming dominance to the scoreboard.

Nine shots in the first 45 minutes and only two on goal. One entered. Who was? Even the question is strange in a team that has that beast that always focuses between the three sticks. The play was as simple in its previous drawing as it was impressive in the shot of the flying Norwegian.

Foden passes, Kevin de Bruyne tore through Sevilla’s defense on the right flank and raised his head to survey the figure of that hulking blond. A precise center from the Belgian for a devastating shot from the Norwegian.

Foden-Haaland, lethal couple

Everything happened in the 20th minute, while the three forwards that Lopetegui has (Rafa Mir, En-Nesyri and Dolberg) looked at that clinic of an old ‘nine’ that is, in reality, the most modern thing that exists right now in football European. And worldwide.

Sevilla tried to react. The forwards who lived on the bench appeared in the second half. First Rafa Mir; then Dolberg. Late and without any influence on the game.

So, Nervión believed in the possibility of stepping on Ederson’s area. It was a false impression because Foden, with a magical left foot, invented a superb goal to bring down Sevilla. And in just over an hour, the matter was settled for City with another goal from Haaland. Soccer is easy when you meet the great players.

Between Haaland and Foden they made Guardiola’s night peaceful in his debut in the Champions League. The Seville? In a depressive and self-destructive process, doubting whether Lopetegui will continue, because he has conceded seven goals (three from Barça and four from City) in the last two games. But of course it happened first. Lewandowski Barça dress and after Haland with the English sheepskin.

Does not understand periods of adaptation. In his first eight games with Guardiola he has sealed 12 goals. There is no one more precise than him. And even Ruben Dias certified, already in added time, that Sevilla’s injury is not only Lopetegui’s responsibility. The Sánchez Pizjuán exploded and transferred his discomfort.
