Manchester City achieved a great 3-1 victory against Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League’s opening game played in the Etihad Stadium, where the locals imposed their quality through a sensational Julian Alvarez, who unlocked the game for the Citizen with a double before they imposed their quality and dominance on the pitch.
After a first half with many goal chances missed by Manchester City, their rivals opened the score a few seconds before the first half finished trough a goal scored by Bukari, who surprisingly gave the lead to Red Star in the Etihad Stadium.
However, Manchester City started the second half taking their dominance on the pitch to the next level, and being more efficient in the last metters, as Julian Alvarez scored the equalizer at the 47th minute with a sensational play that would be followed by a wonderful goal scored at the 60th minute, where he combined with Haaland and finished the play beating the rival goalkeeper with an impressive move that combined dribbling and shot.
In this sense, Red Star put the Sky Blues on trouble every time they shot, but the locals scored the third goal at the 73rd minute and ended dominating the Serbian team, who went through the final minutes of the game completely dominated by the locals, who had time to make changes, and Pep Guardiola gave entry to young players like Lewis and Bobb, while he ended the game with an important win that allowed City to continue their winning streak with the sixth win in a row.
