Fulltime result:
Man City vs Brentford : 1 - 0
Finally Man City can win after an only goal by Haaland
Thanks Haaland
Finally you made it

Basically, Manchester City dominated this match from the first half, but they always failed with a number of good opportunities. Brentford's defense was a big problem for Manchester City's attackers, then their lack of good finishing was also the reason why this match didn't have more goals. Haaland and Alvarez contributed to this important win, both being involved for Manchester City's only winning goal.

That's the matter.
Recently, Man City has not been very optimal in optimizing the chances they have. In fact, it was a lot of chances, continuous attacks were launched against the opposing team. But, they could only get 1 goal. This is the subject of ongoing evaluation from Pep Guardiola, about how this can end soon and they can return as strong and effective as before.

It is great to see that Haaland is slowly getting back to his old form and he once again scored the can opener in this game and probably the winning goal. Haaland is still leaving out a few of his chances that he would usually convert into goals, but still he deserves to be on the pitch. It is too bad when injuries take him out. It would be sad to see this amazing player spent half of a season as a visitor in the stadium.

Yes, it was a very unexpected condition for such an excellent player to get injured. If he had not been injured at that time, then he would certainly have been much more productive. But that's all in the past and this time, he is really focused again on how to be more contributive in attacking and scoring goals. Even though there are indeed some opportunities where he is quite wasting, they may not be as effective as before. But at least, Haaland is still the top scorer that Man City relies on this season. And he keeps trying.
