At 23:00 Beijing time on February 5, the fourth round of the FA Cup continued, in the opening 3 minutes of the loss of the ball, Gundogan, Stones scored consecutive goals, Mahrez scored twice, Drap scored was blown, Manchester City still reversed Fulham 4-1, successfully entered the round of 16.
Manchester City are Premier League champions and currently ranked No. 1 in the table, while Fulham are No. 1 in the Championship, a dialogue between the two league leaders.
In the 3rd minute, Fulham was the main attacker, Harry Wilson crossed from the right and Fabio Carvalho pushed the goal, 1-0! Fabio Carvalho, 19, had a bright future and almost joined Liverpool before the winter window closed. But surprisingly, due to Liverpool's operational errors, the transfer could not be completed in the end.
One goal behind, City were finally woken up. In the 5th minute, Glalis went into the box to create chaos, Canceló crossed, Mahrez calmly knocked back at the back point, gundogan followed up with a push to make it 1-1!
In the 12th minute, De Bruyne's corner kick was crossed and Stones jumped high to smash the ball into the net, 2-1! In just seven minutes, Manchester City scored two goals in a row and easily achieved a reversal.
In the 52nd minute, Glalish once again staged a one-man play, forcibly carrying the ball into the box and being put to the ground. Subsequently, Mahrez hit a penalty and City opened the gap 3-1.
Last summer, Glallish joined City for 120 million euros, becoming the most expensive player in City's history and Premier League history. However, Glalis has been in a long slump and has not been well integrated into Guardiola's tactical system. Fortunately, Guardiola did not give up on him, waited for more than half a season, and finally played a good game.
In the 57th minute, De Bruyne counter-attacked and pushed forward, and the low flat ball was sent to the feet of Mahrez, who rushed to push into the net, completing the second good play, 4-1! In the 88th minute, the 18-year-old Drap went down again, but unfortunately the offside was first and the goal was invalid.
As the only team in Europe to be worth more than 1 billion euros, Manchester City did not let the accident happen, avoiding the embarrassment of the city's sworn enemy Manchester United. However, Guardiola seems to be less satisfied with the performance of the team, even if he has a three-goal advantage, he still pulls the players to teach the opportunity on the sidelines, and the fans say that if they do not look at the score, they think that Manchester City is still behind.
Previously, Manchester City were eliminated by West Ham in the League Cup, but the Three Fronts of the Premier League, Champions League and FA Cup are all soaring, and Guardiola is expected to win another treble. What's more interesting is that Manchester City also pushed a number of giants to the top of the list in the Champions League odds list.
From 2016 to the present, Guardiola has led Manchester City to 3 Premier League, 1 FA Cup, 4 League Cups and 2 Community Shields, except for one Champions League trophy. Last season, Manchester City reached the final in one fell swoop, but unfortunately lost 0-1 to Chelsea and was second.
Guardiola has revealed that he will not continue to coach the Blue Moon after his contract expires in 2023, so the next two years are his last chance to lead Manchester City to realize his dream.
