What a great start for Arsenal as Odeegard opened the scoreline on 01.44secs to put Arsenal on the lead. City needs to buggle up their belt and equalize this goal for us to know that they have picked form. An early goal will motivate Arsenal winning spirit.
This is the match that will determine if City can win Madrid in the UCL playoff.
Arsenal 1-0 M. City

Arsenal 1-0 M. City
I didn't expect Arsenal to have a goal party in this match, Arsenal managed to record 5 of their players on the scoreboard with each scoring one goal including; M. Odegard 2', T. Partey 56', M. Lewis Skelly 62', K. havetz 76', and E. Nwaneri 90+3. Meanwhile, from the Manchester City camp, Erling Haaland became the only City player who managed to score a goal in this match right in the 55th minute.
In that match, briefly if we look at the statistics, it is clear that Man City was slightly superior in terms of ball possession, but they were unable to take advantage of that dominance well, besides their defense was also quite fragile, so that Arsenal players could easily penetrate Manchester City's defense.
It's full time Old Trafford with Manchester United suffering yet another English Premier League defeat in their own home turf. I was already having serious doubts on Manchester United to win the game which I told my friend that's a Manchester United supporter but he said there's was no way they were gonna drop points in this game.
Manchester United new manager is still trying to figure out a playing pattern that'll work for him and until he gets it right, I expect the team to remain inconsistent with their results. The depth in the team is poor and an injury to Lisandro Martinez today I think means the club needs to make a late signing before the January transfer window closes
This defeat made their position even worse in the standings, initially I thought Manchester United had the potential to win in this match, the attack carried out by Garnacho and his friends in the first half really made the match fierce, but still unable to produce goals until the first half ended with the score still balanced.
The second half saw more violations that occurred, until the silence was broken with a goal scored by a Crystal Palace player, further worsening the situation for Ruben Amorim's men, until the match ended with a score of 2-0 without reply, a vulnerable defense, they must fix it before fighting Tottenham.
Instead of getting closer to the top 10 of the standings, they actually lost points at home. What a disappointing match result, this should have been a match they could have won, but once again the Manchester United players were unable to take advantage of every opportunity they got.
and although in this match A. Onana made some brilliant saves, but I can't say that he performed well enough in this match. and so did the Man United defense line which was quite careless in guarding the back line, so that there was a lot of space for the Crystal Palace players to score goals, especially for the second goal.
