In the first half, City was very dominant, as in the second, but it was Dortmund who created the most danger and had many chances, especially. led by Karim Adeyemi. For his side, the former Salzburg winger made life difficult for Guardiola’s team on several occasions.
Gio Reyna also scored because of a good shot, but Stefan Ortega took the ball, this Tuesday City goalkeeper. Youssoufa Moukoko, assisted by Adeyemi (attacking for Joao Cancelo’s side), shot wide.
The truth is, despite the chances for Dortmund (in a match with one Jude Bellingham having less participation than on other occasions), Ortega kept a clean sheet.
Guardiola, who made 6 changes to his eleven from the one that beat Brighton 3-1 on Saturday, took Haaland off at half-time, as well as Cancelo and brought on Bernardo Silva and Manuel Akanji. The city changed to the Portuguese, who improved greatly in the attack.
The ‘citizens’ shut out Borussia Dortmund for most of the second half. The referee gave a penalty to Riyad Mahrez, but Gregor Kobel, goalkeeper for the Signal Iduna Park team, stopped the Algerian international. A huge blow to Sevilla’s hopes, which ended when the referee signaled the end of the match. Sevilla will leave the Champions League, but will play in the Europa League.
