Wards Pep Guardiola dealt with the "hammers" in their own field (4: 1).
West Ham had some margin from the relegation zone, but it was not worth the time to relax. Moreover, the guests came to visit them as a champion. Why not show good football and give a real fight? Note that Alexander Zinchenko was not even in the application.
From the first minute, "citizens" took possession of the ball and were looking for an opportunity to score a goal. "Hammers" defended tightly, so Leroy Sane struck from outside the penalty area - after a rebound from Patrice Evra the ball dived into the corner of the gate. 0: 1. And already in the middle of the half, Kevin De Bruyne shot sharply from the flank, and Declan Rice cut the ball into his own net. 0: 2.
Toward the end of the first half, the hosts stepped up a little and earned a dangerous free kick. Aaron Cresswell perfectly struck the wall, and Ederson could not help out. 1: 2. However, the second half put everything in its place. Raheem Sterling found Gabriel Jesus in an excellent transmission, and he second shot Hadrian's possessions. 1: 3. After that it was clear that the "hammers" no longer catch on to points.
Team Pep Guardiola had many more moments, but only one ended in a naked - Fernandinho launched Stirling in the flank, and he returned to the Brazilian - the ex-miner could not miss the slaughter position. 1: 4. As a result, the "townspeople" easily scored three points, beat a lot of records and approached even to the same number of achievements.
