Looks like Manchester City won't do any mistakes. Even though they concede a goal they can easily convert the score. West Ham United was a team that was appreciated for their success in the first weeks of the league, but they couldn't show any presence against Manchester City. It'll be very hard for other teams to compete with this City.
In fact, Manchester City struggled a bit in the first half because West Ham, who implemented a defensive and counter-attacking strategy, really played well. West Ham scored the first goal through a counter-attack, they also managed to create several other opportunities using the same scheme. But they couldn't stop a team that dominates the game and is also able to create lots of chances like Manchester City. The match ended with the score 1-3, Doku, Bernardo Silva and Haaland each scored a goal, and this was a tiring match.
Haaland really didn't give up in this match. He looked happy after scoring a goal for his team to win. Haaland really had difficulty breaking into West Ham's goal because Areola didn't give him any chances at all, but in the end Haaland managed to score after 4 or 5 of his chances were saved by Areola. But in the end Areola had to give up after Haaland's hard shot meant he had to pick up the ball in the net.
Well that's right, to be honest I was a little surprised in the early rounds because of course as we saw West Ham was able to lead the score 1 - 0 over Manchester City and obviously this is a big concern especially for Manchester City fans as the defending Premier League champions. I admit that indeed West Ham's performance this time is very good with a strong defense strategy, it is not uncommon that the average opponent is always difficult to withstand various sharp attacks from Manchester City, but for West Ham this is quite proud in my opinion even though in the end things turned around in the second half with three goals of retaliation from Guardiola's squad.
To be honest, at first I was quite worried about Manchester City, I thought they would not be able to reply to the goal but well it turns out Manchester City was able to make things turn around in the second half with a 3 - 1 victory over West Ham, and it is quite right to say that Guardiola's squad is indeed very strong, they are able to take advantage and build many opportunities on the field, and obviously Manchester City will always be everyone's favorite with so many extraordinary players there.
