Manchester City entered the match as favourites and won using their home advantage. Kevin De Bruyne's goal was the deciding moment of the match because there were no other goals. Wolverhampton, although in good form recently, had difficulty resisting City's tempo and pressure at the Etihad, actually Wolverhampton were not bad. It was a good win despite Haaland's absence, Kevin De Bruyne took over Haaland's duties.
