Pep Guardiola hopes Manchester City have overcome their penalties after Kevin De Bruyne scored another goal from the spot.
The team has been plagued by failures this season, with failed attempts by Raheem Sterling, Sergio Aguero, Gabriel Jesus, and Ilkay Gundogan – some more expensive than others.
Kevin De Bruyne strengthened when it was necessary to convert at the Bernabeu to complete City’s turnaround in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 against the Spanish giants, then took on Arsenal.
Mahrez took the Belgian on the bench against Burnley and scored, and De Bruyne made it four times in a row for the team when he scored the first goal against Newcastle on Sunday.
While Guardiola is thinking about a campaign in which they could not keep the championship title, the coach knows how important penalties were to the team and how important they could be to their chances of winning the two competitions they still could.
“Hopefully he can keep this level because we have a lot to fight this season,” said the manager after the game in Newcastle.
“We missed five or six penalties, I think – too much – with different players. We fought a lot and I remember many games in which we lost points and now Kevin takes charge. He has three or four goals achieved and that’s important. ” for us to have his confident personality to continue to score. “
