They don't fool around, do they? Pep's mean machine march through Molineux (3-0)
Imagine you prepare the whole week for the clash with the favourites, study all their flaws and tactics, work so hard all those days to stay competitive for the entire 90 minutes and then - you concede after less than a minute!
It must have been awful for Wolves once Jack Grealish netted for Manchester City in the 56th second of their today's clash at Molineux. After such a strong start, no wonder the Citizens bulldozed the hosts 3-0 to return to the top of the Premier League.

Wolves, with not less than seven Portuguese players in the starting XI, did their best to fight back, but Pep Guardiola has too many incredible players at his disposal. And you never know when and who of them will set the tone of the City's game.
As we mentioned, Grealish broke the deadlock following an artistic build-up by De Bruyne and Foden as the clock was still ticking the opening minute.

Marvellous Erling Haaland doubled the lead shortly after to shatter all hopes of Bruno Lage's slot, which affected their behaviour on the pitch. Collins went full Nigel De Jong on Grealish around the half-hour mark, for which he was instantly, and we must say rightfully, sent off. Oh, by the way, Haaland became the first EPL player ever to score goals in four consecutive away league games.

Ten-men Wolverhampton stood no chance against the super confident table-toppers. The favourites slowed down a bit, though, after the break, but Pep's vocal criticism in the middle of the half resulted in an immediate response - Foden's smooth finishing sealed the much-deserved 3-0 win.
