It is one of the most moving stories in football.
While Mbappé believes he’s the king, the young Man City girl who gives him a lesson in humility
Manchester City beat Red Star 3-2 as a visitor and thus secured first place in group “G” of the Champions League. Guardiola’s Citizens finished this stage with an ideal score after winning their six matches. Today, the Skyblues had to work harder to beat the Serbian team, who finished last with just one unit. The triumph of the British was opened thanks to the appearance of a young talent, who a few years ago was Pep Guardiola’s ball player and dreamed of making his debut in the first team.
Pep Guardiola sent an alternative team to the field and for that reason Micah Hamilton made his official debut for Manchester City. It took the young man only 20 minutes to score the first goal of his career, a powerful cross shot that left Omri Glazer, the home team’s goalkeeper, no chance. The 20-year-old not only allowed his team to open the scoring, but also forced the penalty so that Phillips converted the final 3-2 five minutes from the final whistle.
The curious thing about Micah Hamilton, who had a dream debut, is that he received an indication from Pep Guardiola again after six years. Of course, the first meeting between them had taken place in 2017, in the middle of a match in which Manchester City faced Crystal Palace. There, the coach explained to a little ball catcher that he had to deliver the ball quickly to the City players in order to catch the rivals off guard. That same kid took to the field tonight and shined in the eyes of the public.
