The mentality of Crystal Palace players is trampled on after the two quick goals from Manchester City, they will be happy with the halftime break to give them time to reorganize themselves. Kevin De Bruyne is having a good game, one free kick goal and a few other very good attempts. This are his last days in the club, it is good he is marking it with scoring goals for the team and inspiring them. Marmoush will become another Egyptian in the premier league that would be talked about for long like Salah.
How Crystal Palace got two quick goals against Manchester City at the Etihad is something else, these two goals were from just two shots on target this simply means that the strikes all went on target and found the back of the net. For this the host just has to be careful so the visitors don't get too close to their 18 yard box and have the opportunity to strike. Manchester City on the other hand responded positively too with two quick goals at the same same time have dominated the game from all directions. The have the ball at will and also dictates the tempo of the game, this will make them go forward at will at the same time it makes them more dangerous, they just need to make good use of their chances.
This is what Man City fans miss. When they are behind they have to get back up quickly, and in this match Man City proved that they are not a team that gives up easily. Behind two goals from Crystal Palace with a quick goal, it didn't take long for Man City to equalize in the first half, and in the second half they managed to score three more goals until now the score is 5-2 for Man City's victory.
Interestingly, the fourth goal for Man City, the goal was scored by McAtee in the 56th minute, assisted by Ederson, currently Ederson has contributed 4 assists in the Premier League this season. But unfortunately Ederson had to be replaced in the 71st minute due to injury. Hopefully the injury suffered by Ederson is not too serious.
This victory makes Man City's position rise to 4th place in the standings, although their position can still be shifted by Chelsea or Newcastle but at least this victory increases Man City's confidence.
This is the best victory what City have gotten so far since the beginning of this season, coming from two goals down to win the match with five goals. This is also the first time this season that City has scored five goals in one match. City made their fans proud today and I saw that old victorious spirit in them on the field. Crystal Palace started what they couldn't finish.
