If there was any doubt about Blues being up for it, this busted the myth

WHEN Sammie Szmodics opened the scoring for Ipswich Town early on, many inside the Etihad Stadium wouldn't have been far wrong with their guess of how City would respond.

If there was any doubt about Blues being up for it, this busted the myth

The visitors went ahead after seven minutes.

Seven minutes later, City were 3-1 up and in cruise control to earn their second win of the 2024/25 Premier League season. Erling Haaland converted from the penalty spot before Kevin De Bruyne capitalised on an error from Arijanet Muric to turn the game round.

Haaland scored his second two minutes later before his 10th hattrick for the club in the closing stages of the game was sealed after a flat second-half.

These are the moments you may have missed from the Etihad on Saturday.

PERFECT GUARDIOLA

When you consider all the success City have enjoyed in recent years, you might accept the odd misplaced pass or rare lack of quality when in possession.

That isn't the case if you play under Guardiola.

After a thrilling first-half display, City took their time to get out of the traps in the second period and the Spaniard was visibly frustrated at certain actions.

A pass from De Bruyne to Savinho missed the Brazilian and went out for a goal-kick, resulting in Guardiola turning away in disgust shaking his head. Moments later, Jeremy Doku's attempted dash past Ben Johnson was no good and the Belgian ran the ball straight out for a throw-in. Again, Guardiola turned to his staff in frustration before issuing De Bruyne some instructions.
