Manchester City football players beat Wolverhampton with Ladislav Krejč 2:0 at home in the English league and succeeded after four rounds. The visitors lost for the first time this year. West Ham with Tomáš Souček defeated Sunderland 3:1. Jarrod Bowen decided from the penalty spot and with a balance of 63 goals and 40 assists he became the club’s most productive player in the Premier League. He surpassed former teammate Michail Antonio. Liverpool went down with a set-piece goal at Bournemouth.
The league’s top scorer Haaland was replaced by the Egyptian Marmúš in the lineup against Wolverhampton, as the Norwegian gunner last scored against Brighton on January 7 in a 1:1 draw. Pep Guardiola’s bold move paid off in the sixth minute as the CAF returnee put City ahead with his first Premier League goal of the season.
The “Cityzens” lead was doubled by Semenyo, who transferred from Bournemouth two weeks ago. It was the first league goal for the Ghanaian winger in the new jersey. Manchester City have pulled four points clear of leaders Arsenal. The leader will welcome United in Sunday’s knockout round. Wolves are bottom of the table 14 points from safety.
West Ham triumphed thanks to a successful first half in which they put three goals against Sunderland. Summerville opened the scoring, the team’s top scorer Bowen with his seventh goal of the season and Fernandes added to the scoring. The visitors eased the deficit after the break with a Brobbey header. Sunderland have not won away from home for the seventh time in a row and are in ninth place, two points behind in the cup.
For the first time since November, the “Hammers” succeeded in two league games in a row and came close to the bars guaranteeing salvation by a difference of two points. However, 17th-placed Nottingham has Sunday’s game at Brentford to look forward to.
Goals from Evanilson and Jiménez gave Bournemouth a 2-0 lead by the 33rd minute, but Liverpool captain Van Dijk pulled one back before the break and Szoboszlai equalized from a free-kick in the 80th minute. The Reds looked to be on course for a fifth successive league draw but Adli took advantage of confusion in front of the visitors’ goal in the fifth minute to push the ball behind goalkeeper Alisson.
Tottenham drew 2-2 at Burnley, they haven’t won in five rounds and are thirteenth. “Spurs” had to save at least an extra point in the 90th minute by captain Romero. The home team drew in the third game in a row, and they are seven points short of the penultimate place.
