In an unusual scenario in the UEFA Champions League, the current champion of the competition is currently down on the scoreboard after 45 minutes played at the Etihad Stadium. Red Star Belgrade took the lead with a goal from Osman Bukari in the 45th minute. In this way, Pep Guardiola’s team is in an unfavorable but not impossible situation.

Despite having figures such as Erling Haaland, Bernardo Silva, Jeremy Doku, among others, it seemed that the Belgrade team wanted to take the game and the three points back to Serbia. At the moment, the reactions have not been long in coming from the fans who at the moment are flooded the networks with all kinds of comments. There’s have been a lot of talk lately about the capacity of not favorable teams to strike first whenever is needed and this is what exactly happened today with Red Star Belgrade.

With clearly more games to play, the Premier League team is down on the scoreboard as happened this weekend against West Ham. However, The Citizens managed to recover on the scoreboard and take a victory in London with an equalizer by Jeremy Doku and goals scored by Erling Haaland and Bernardo Silva

Similarly, City is unbeaten this season and plans to continue with the good pace. At the moment, the Citizens are leaders of the English competition

With this said, the fans are excited about Alvarez recent performances and how he can contribute in the next City games in Premier League and in the rest of the Group Stage commitments. Definitely, the world of soccer has his ups and downs and everything can happen in a matter of seconds. Thats what makes the sport so unique.
