In the 26th round of the Premier League, Manchester United played Bournemouth away, Haaland and Alvarez were both dumbfounded, Foden stepped forward and scored the only goal of the game, Manchester City won 1-0 away and retreated, continuing to chase the top Liverpool.

Bournemouth had quickly escaped the edge of the relegation zone with a wave of 6 wins and 1 draw in the previous period, and recently only won 3 draws and 3 defeats, and in the first leg, Doku completed 1 goal and 4 assists, Manchester City won 6-1. Guardiola also made a little change in this game, Alvarez, who has been in a slump recently, returned to the bench and stood by, De Bruyne continued to be substituted, Haaland played as a central striker, Foden and B were separated on the wings, Rodri, Nunes and Kovacic were in the middle, Akanji, Stones, and Dias Ake were four central defenders to join the backline, and Ederson was in the door.

Because of the difference in strength and lineup between the two sides, Manchester City has no suspense and firmly holds the control. In the 8th minute, Ake's long pass from the back quickly passed through the midfield, Foden kept the ball in front of the field, and Haaland's last shot went directly off the goal; 1 minute later, Bournemouth immediately responded, Colkez suddenly sent a cold arrow from the periphery, forcing Ederson to block the ball off the bottom line with one palm. In the 24th minute, Rodri conducted, Kovacic picked up a pass, Haaland quickly started and inserted a small angle to lean on the defense and was blocked by Neto, Foden pushed into the net, 1:0! In the last 4 times against Bournemouth, Foden scored 4 goals and 2 assists, and became the opponent's nemesis.

In the 27th minute, B turned around in the penalty area and shot, the ball was slightly off; in the 38th minute, Stones stepped forward to create a well-placed set-piece, Foden slid through the goal, and in the 44th minute, Foden created a threat, he received a pass from B at the top of the arc, and even stopped and shook the angle to push, but it was too right, and Neto easily confiscated the ball.

Bournemouth came back in the second half and put in a lot of attacking force and had four shots in 15 minutes, and in the 52nd minute, Haaland forced a shot on the right side of the B seat that was blocked. In the 59th minute, Solanke resisted the Stones defense in the penalty area and knocked back, Tavernier followed up and shot wide, and in the 66th minute, Tavennier took a corner kick, Solanke shook his head at close range, and Ederson played a limit to keep the goal intact.

Pep Guardiola immediately made adjustments when he saw that he was being besieged, and Doku replaced Nunes to strengthen the counterattack and impact on the wing. In the 75th minute, the inactive Haaland was also withdrawn by Alvarez, Haaland had only 1 shot on target in 3 shots in this game, missed 1 scoring opportunity, failed to pass 2 times, only touched the ball 26 times, lost the ball 7 times, and only scored 6.4 points after the game, the lowest in the team.

In the 84th minute, Ouattara relied on his personal ability on the left to get rid of Akanji's defense and shook off the angle and fired a low shot into the far corner, the ball slid past the goal, and finally Manchester City resisted Bournemouth's final attack, holding on to a one-goal advantage and retreating away, and maintaining a 15-game winning streak against Bournemouth. After this campaign, Manchester City is still only one point behind Liverpool in the standings, and the pressure on Klopp is still not small.
