To be fair, this is what I was worried about because Inter is a strong team and the famous Italian defense showed itself in that game.
City didn't play that badly to be fair, I do not think that they played that terrible, they passed around like they always do but normally when you have a weaker team against you then you end up getting an easy score, and I believe that we are going to see that change eventually, because of that City didn't find that small "mistake" that other smaller teams do, and that is why I believe that Inter focused on defense all game long, they tried to cover each others mistakes and that is how they kept City without a score.
When you let City run, you make mistakes and you end up trying to claw back into the game and make even more mistakes. Inter knew this and that is why they did play very well and we should be seeing Inter playing like this for a long time and could do very well in UCL if they keep doing this, they got a very important point here.
Generally, Italian teams are very difficult to play with especially in the Champions League, they are very strong and they are used to tough play which is the main reason any team have to play gently to avoid their players getting injured; nevertheless, Manchester City’s performance was not bad, they played very well to the extent of putting a lot of effort to win the match, but Inter Milan were also well prepared to take home something, and being at home was an added advantage to them and they are lucky to end the game without conceding any goal especially as Haaland is in good form. This first match didn’t favor Manchester City, and I think Pep Guardiola removed KDB against Arsenal game on Sunday because he know that he can make it up in other Champions League matches.
Arsenal on the other hand also failed to provide a positive result against Atalanta. The match was very tough, Atalanta uses their home advantage very well and they almost defeated us Arsenal, they got a penalty in the second half but David Raya saved us and several clearance from Saliba and Gabriel. Arsenal defense again saved them from defeat.
