At 22:00 Beijing time on December 19, the 18th round of the Premier League ushered in an oil derby. In the first half, Ruben Díaz scored lightning, Cancello extended the score, and in the second half Mahrez and Sterling added to the icing on the cake, and Newcastle lost 4-0. In recent times, Newcastle have suffered three consecutive defeats in the Premier League, ranking second from the bottom of the table!
Just 5 minutes into the opening, De Bruyne picked out a pass, Canselo's cross from the bottom line, Newcastle defender seriously broke the top, Ruben Díaz smiled and scored from close range, 0-1!
In the 27th minute, City made a comeback, De Bruyne split the side, Mahrez's low cross, and Canselo Neche's right-footed blast into the goal. Cancelo's pass in 22 minutes gave City a 2-0 lead.
So far this season, Cancelo has contributed 2 goals and 7 assists in all competitions, with a total of 9 goals, surpassing last season's statistics.
In the 64th minute, Mahrez scored another goal, and Newcastle fell behind 3-0, completely losing hope of a comeback. Mahrez contributed 10 goals and 4 assists in 23 appearances, becoming City's top scorer.
Before the end of the game, Sterling went down again, and Newcastle lost 4-0!
Newcastle lost to Leicester City, Liverpool and Manchester City, scoring 1 goal in 3 games but conceding 11 goals in a row, becoming a veritable big cash machine. In particular, after Eddie Howe took office, Newcastle won only one victory, dating back half a month, when it defeated burnley, who was also a relegation team, 1-0.
Opta data shows that Eddie Howe has played against Manchester City in a total of 11 times, resulting in 11 defeats, becoming the current manager of the Premier League with the most losses against a single team, setting a record of shame. Newcastle are still in the bottom of the table and still stuck in the relegation zone.
As we all know, Newcastle has received a capital injection from the Saudi consortium, and this 129-year-old team has entered a new era.
But as the saying goes, Rome wasn't built in a day, and Newcastle has proven itself to have nothing but money now, and is also backed by the rich in the Middle East, which is not at all the same level as Manchester City.
It is worth mentioning that Newcastle has also provoked public anger, and is regarded as a thorn in the eye by the Powerful in the Premier League, and they are eager to be relegated immediately. Right now, most Premier League teams don't want Newcastle to succeed in relegation, waiting for the Magpies to make a big joke.
