Tintin's 2 shots and 1 pass led the reversal, Manchester City beat Crystal Palace away, and put pressure on Liverpool

After a 4-1 thrashing at home to Aston Villa to avenge the embarrassing defeat at home, Manchester City rushed to Selhurst Park to challenge Crystal Palace.

The three-front battle is a decisive battle, and Guardiola has no time to worry about it, so he can only do his best to win. However, given that they will travel to the Bernabeu to challenge Champions League champions Real Madrid in midweek, Guardiola has made a more obvious rotation. Phil Foden, Bernardo, Akanji, Ake and Doku were all on the sidelines, with Kevin De Bruyne, Erling Haaland and John Stones making their debuts.

Obviously, Guardiola's mind is all on the first leg of the quarter-final against Real Madrid, and the coach is like this, and the players are naturally ape - in the third minute, Stones' careless pass was cut off and couldn't catch up, Mateta ran all the way after winning the ball, and volleyed into the far corner after entering the penalty area, and the ball hit the inside of the post and into the net.

In less than 4 minutes of the opening game, the opponent stole his home, and the angry Guardiola spat fragrant lips and sat down in the coach's seat to wave his hand to express his dissatisfaction.

Although Crystal Palace is nowhere near as strong as Manchester City, they can always cause problems for Manchester City. Pep Guardiola's repertoire against Crystal Palace has been a backlog against Crystal Palace almost every season since taking charge, with the first leg of the season at the Etihad, when Foden was awarded a stoppage-time penalty to bring City's home winning streak to an abrupt end.

After conceding the goal, Manchester City stormed around Crystal Palace, but United Academy goalkeeper Jordan Henderson denied Alvarez and Rodri brilliant shots within five minutes.

However, City's goal didn't wait long. In the 13th minute, Garesh's low cross from the left was blocked, and De Bruyne cut into the net and then suddenly got up and fired into the corner, the ball went past Henderson's fingertips and into the corner. The whole action was smooth and in one go, and Guardiola on the sidelines flew happily, and even sent a flying kiss directly to De Bruyne.

Seven minutes later, Kevin De Bruyne sent a delicate through ball down the middle, Haaland cut in and formed a one-on-one shot, but the final shot was blocked by Henderson with his foot, missing a golden opportunity to overtake the scoreline.

In the first half, Manchester City had 76 per cent possession, nine shots on goal, five on target and seven corners, but the score was 1-1 and the two sides were evenly matched.

In the second half, Manchester City continued to put pressure on the Crystal Palace goal. In the 47th minute, Garesh crossed from the left wing, and Lewis, who was outflanked in the middle, stopped the ball and volleyed the goal, making the score 2-1. Less than two minutes into the second half, Manchester City also responded with a blitzkrieg from Crystal Palace.

After taking the lead, Manchester City played more calmly, pressing Crystal Palace to the back and rubbing it repeatedly. Haaland finally broke the goal drought and made it 3-1 – in the 66th minute, De Bruyne sent Garesh's through ball to goal, and Haaland risked being tackled into the empty net.

The big picture has been decided, the winner has been decided, and Guardiola is in a good mood and extends a thumbs up to the players to show his appreciation.

Three minutes later, Grealish received De Bruyne's through plug into the box and then reversed the triangle pass, Rodri made the ball, De Bruyne pulled out his foot and volleyed, Henderson was caught off guard and could only watch the ball go into the net. De Bruyne scored 2 shots and 1 pass, Grealish scored 4 goals, Guardiola blossomed, waved his big hand, changed the general, and Mingjin withdrew.

However, Crystal Palace had no intention of surrendering. In the 86th minute, he bypassed Diaz in the counterattack and scored in front of the goal, which made the victory and defeat a little suspenseful.

Despite some panic, Manchester City finally held on to a 4-2 victory, and after three points were in hand, they tied Liverpool on points and went to the Bernabeu to challenge Real Madrid.
