In the Champions League quarter-finals in midweek, Manchester City lost to Real Madrid at home in a good situation, and were blocked out of the semi-finals by the Galaxy Battleship, but fortunately they adjusted in time, and then beat Chelsea 1-0 in the FA Cup semi-finals, reaching the final for the second consecutive season. After a few days of rest, Manchester City continued their Premier League title quest away to Brighton, who currently sit 11th in the table. In the past 5 meetings between the two sides, Manchester City has won 4 and drawn 1 to remain unbeaten, with a clear psychological advantage. With Erling Haaland out injured and Foden scoring a brace and Kevin De Bruyne and Alvarez scoring a goal each, Manchester City swept away 4-0 to defend their title on both fronts.

Coming to the opposition's turf, Pep Guardiola put on his usual 3-2-4-1 formation, with Ederson continuing to defend the net for Mancheng City, Gvardiol, Ake and Walker forming a three-centre-back system, Rodri and Akanji partnering in the back, Foden, B, Kovacic and De Bruyne lined up, Alvarez came forward alone, and Haaland was absent due to injury.

From the start of the game, City used skilful play to firmly control the ball and broke the deadlock in the 17th minute: Foden turned away from the right and sent in a through ball, Walker crossed and De Bruyne leapt over to shoot the ball into the net to give City a 1-0 lead.

After returning from injury, Ding Ding was unstoppable, contributing 6 goals and 14 assists in only 20 games, and directly participated in 20 goals!

In the 26th minute, City continued to work hard when Foden broke through with the ball and was brought down at the edge of the box to create a set-piece. The prince of Manchester City personally handled it, and the ball hit Gross and refracted into the net, 2-0!

In the 34th minute, Manchester City's suffocation forced Brighton to be completely out of breath, Balco made a mistake in the return pass, and the ball was broken at the front of the B penalty area, Foden smiled and gave a big gift, and the ball was pushed to the next city, 3-0!

Foden has already scored 24 goals and provided 10 assists this season, scoring a big double-double and continuing his best record. At the end of the first 45 minutes, Manchester City had 9 shots on goal and 3 on target, all of which were converted into goals, and they were 3-0 ahead.

Back on the pitch, City were still in control of the game. In the 63rd minute, Ederson sent a world-class long pass, Walker broke through the inverted triangle on the right side, and Alvarez volleyed to make a contribution, and the score came to 4-0!

With a big lead, Pep Guardiola also made a series of substitutions in the 72nd minute, with Foden and De Bruyne both being replaced, and Grealish and Nunes coming on as substitutes. In the 78th minute, Rodri, Bench B and Walker also clocked in early, with Doku, Rico Lewis and Sergio Gomez coming in.

With a 4-0 win over Brighton, Manchester City ushered in two consecutive wins, surpassed Liverpool in points, and temporarily moved to second place. With a game in hand, Manchester City is only one point behind Arsenal, and the initiative to win the title is in their own hands.

In the next round, Manchester City will have a good chance of taking all three points against fourth-to-last underdogs Nottingham Forest, while Arsenal will face north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur, and the Blues are waiting for their title rivals to make mistakes.
