00:00matches which is quite out of character so away we go match day two chance for
00:11Manchester City to make it six points out of six a chance for Monaco to get off
00:17the mark Derek Dier in his first season here and Tino Kerr both of them of
00:25course experience playing it against City in English clubs Dier in England
00:29international of course there was with West Ham for a reasonable spell
00:43and it's a proven deus
00:48stones nominally start you up right back step into midfield he's done that plenty
00:54of times that Guardiola likes his fullbacks to do that
00:57doesn't take that sense of adventure so early in the game
01:04it's Guardiola has been playing at left back in the last year or so but Nico O'Reilly on the ball
01:11there has done a steady job and Guardiola is really a centre-back by trade and here is an informed player
01:18for Manchester City Jeremie doko who has been full of beans full of tricks always positive
01:28doesn't just hang out on the touchline
01:30and he's the free kick which Adi Hooter will hope his team can defend the very last thing
01:39and not in his circumstances is to go a goal down early on Phil Foden over the ball
01:46and Harland waits yes a tall man so is Roderick
01:54stones of course plenty in there with height trying to stay on side as Foden takes it deep
02:02and he needs a helping touch from Van Desson
02:07let's put a little bit too much on that Foden
02:14stones looking for movement here
02:19Ruben Diaz
02:25Monaco had some problems
02:28at the weekend even when they were 11 against 11 against L'Oreal who defended
02:32looked to play on the break but I think it's Monaco going to go into the low block here
02:39expecting Manchester City to have more of the ball but it's a nervy moment from O'Reilly
02:47and Anzu Fatih has made a sensational start really
02:52always looked promising with Barcelona
02:56not one by stones
03:08short of midfield players in particular
03:14Monaco Golovine
03:17is of course the Russian international
03:22a big part in the World Cup in Russia
03:28only here but he's injured
03:30now down they can't even name the full allocation of substitutes Monaco tonight
03:38they've got some very good players
03:47they can just gel
03:50of course have done the traveling though
03:53it's not the hardest of European journeys
03:56down here to the south of France
03:58it's a pretty pleasant one as well when you arrive
04:03there goes
04:05Diata
04:06more than creeping forward
04:10Akiwish
04:13having to
04:17leave that to his defenders
04:19here's the former
04:21Monagasc
04:22Bernardo Silva
04:23Roderick
04:27in Vario
04:29said he weren't really put to a full test by Napoli
04:39match day one because
04:42Lorenzo got that early
04:44red card
04:46set himself on review
04:48many disputed the decision
04:52probably not even the culprit himself
04:54question making a breakthrough
04:59they had to wait
04:59a while to do it
05:01Tino looks good in the record books
05:05Riley trying to get it to Haaland
05:08he's in absolutely blistering form
05:11even by his standards this season
05:1315 goals in 9 games for club and country
05:15scored in his last five appearances for City
05:19a seven game scoring streak
05:22if you factor in those two Norwegian internationals
05:24last month
05:25another international break of course
05:30coming up in a
05:31record two
05:33in October
05:34Stokes
05:38Roderick
05:40he's just being managed
05:42careful with his minutes
05:44he didn't play in the league game at the weekend
05:46Gokou
05:48he really
05:50he's doing
05:51quite reach Bernardo Silva
05:53It's Guardiola.
06:12Reinders who made that forward run and nearly got into the scoring position himself.
06:21Guardiola.
06:23Vanderson getting in quickly.
06:25Kliush was ill against the game at the weekend, but it's full of health here.
06:34And so too does Vanderson.
06:36Good crossing position for Monaco and it goes off O'Reilly and the home team get a corner.
06:49Vanderson's been here three years now.
06:52Played for Brazil.
06:55And making his way up is Mohamed Salasu, number 22.
07:05Garnean is with Southampton for three seasons.
07:10And now by Diaz.
07:18And then trying to get Achilles, she acknowledges the intention and almost apologizes for not
07:30quite being on the same wavelength.
07:31One of two promising moments down that right-hand side for Monaco already.
07:36They've left out Takumi Minamino.
07:42He's a substitute.
07:44He has a lot of experience playing against English teams.
07:48Maybe he's a candidate for some manager calling now finishers rather than substitutes.
08:01Marouma just had to shift his feet quickly.
08:04He's not, by his own admission, the very best with the ball on the ground, but he's got many
08:10other admirable qualities.
08:11He's got many grinders and reaches Roderick by Stones.
08:21Grinders again.
08:22See well on your screens there, the shape that Monaco are dropping back into.
08:31Going down the gauntlet to City, really, saying, we'll try and find a way through.
08:37But if you get a bit of overconfidence on the ball, we might have the weapons on the counter-attack
08:43to show some power.
08:51Bernardo Silva flip it through towards Foden.
08:59Avgarioli was stressing before the game today that to get through in this league stage, you
09:05should be aiming to win all your home games and a couple of away wins and that will take
09:11you through and that will take you through and he's going to be away.
09:14Attempts start here tonight.
09:19Devaiti Atta, Balogun is the main striker, Ansu Fati playing deeper and Dakliou similarly
09:35on the other side.
09:40Stokes.
09:42Stokes.
09:45Stokes.
09:48Stokes.
09:50Stokes.
09:54Stokes.
09:57Monaco doubling up on the Belgian international straightaway.
10:01Stokes.
10:02Stokes.
10:04Stokes.
10:05Stokes.
10:06Stokes.
10:07Stokes.
10:08Really using it to too much advantage, but they are helped by the referee blowing for
10:26a free kick, and by Nadir Silva on the
10:38Dutch midfield play, although a right-back really, Jordan Tese, here's another Dutchman,
10:46and Rinder's really had a pretty good position, disappointed in the way it worked out, really
10:55he's gone for power, and a bit of direction, and then wheeling away in celebration.
11:08Pepp Linders is now the assistant, formerly with Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp of course,
11:15to Pep Guardiola, interesting change, managers who stay a long time tend to change their coaching
11:23staff so that there are different voices, even if theirs stays the same, different voices
11:28for the training day in, day out, from perspective.
11:37And this former club Liverpool, of course, were beaten in Turkey yesterday in the Champions League.
11:46OK, we're trying to get Kripp Indiatek in from a sort of left wing-back position.
11:55Here's Foden.
11:56Kedoku, Foden going again, loves to get in the box.
12:01Kedoku, he's played, I think, deliberately behind Haaland, so Bernardo Silva can cross,
12:08Eric Dier gets his head to it, he could throw a blanket over most of the players on the pitch
12:17at the moment, he said he needs to use a bit of wit, you can see Doku going out there,
12:24that's feeling the same thing, Bernardo Silva's attacked on this near-touch line.
12:30O'Reilly's infield and he's lost out, so Nikolouche actually missed a penalty at 0-0 on match day one
12:39in Bruges against Club Brugge, that had been a different tale, he'd scored it.
12:45It was given away by Simon Mignolet, the veteran goalkeeper, and then Mignolet saved it.
12:55The damage he potentially would have caused.
13:02The Atta.
13:04By Salissou to Le Guinness, Swiss by football nationality, but grew up in Germany.
13:16You got to go!
13:18You got to go!
13:19You got to go!
13:20You got to go!
13:21You got to go!
13:23You got to go!
13:24You got to go!
13:26You got to go!
13:27Karolo Toure is also a member, former Maestro City player of course,
13:32a member of Guardiola's first-team staff.
13:36He's a defender, he's concerned.
13:38Roger might have lost the ball then.
13:39Roger might have lost the ball then.
13:44Carlo was having a brief chat with Paul Pogba,
13:49who was pointing the tunnel to say hello to some familiar faces from Manchester.
13:54A World Cup winner is available to play once Monaco feel he's fit enough.
14:02I think Danny Hu here, of course, about the signing. Very newsworthy.
14:13Barriol arriving.
14:18And Haaland's made a very good run. If he gets a toe to it, he'll score,
14:21and that's exactly what he does.
14:26The run goes on. Manchester City lead here in the Principality.
14:31And it's the principal Manchester City scorer, a principal Champions League scorer,
14:36who does the damage.
14:41Quick dart forward. Lovely timing on the pass. Just get a touch. A one-touch finish.
14:48And they sometimes say he doesn't get enough touches in a match,
14:54but he gets touches like this when it really matters.
14:58And what a beginning, even by his extraordinary standards he is having to this season.
15:06That's his tenth Manchester City goal. They've scored, I think, 19 between them.
15:11So, Pep very grateful for the man that City gave a ten-year contract to.
15:17And he got one in the international and five in the other in the two games from Norway in September break.
15:30So add to the ten those six. This is his tenth game of the season. What a player. Phenomenal.
15:36That huge, nearly, right through by Balogun and City dropping their guard for a moment.
15:52It's interesting to do at this level of the game.
15:57Paul Pogba in the back row.
16:02That's the concern for his new teammates.
16:14So, Jordan Tese in the corner. Donnarumma gives it a really extravagant punch.
16:21It's coming back in his direction.
16:29He headed away. Banana Silva added interest to the clearance.
16:37There's a bit of room for Ackley here. Balogun. Oh, he got that.
16:42I think he might have scored. Donnarumma was in no man's land.
16:48Where he took his eye off. It's always hard to judge the actual trajectories.
16:55But it certainly looked from our angle.
16:58Could have been 1-1 straight away.
17:03From the other number nine.
17:04Just give Monaco a little bit of belief that, rather than sitting back and almost waiting to get beaten, have a go.
17:21Lancet City has not been rock solid defensively this season.
17:25And have a go, indeed.
17:28Jordan Tese.
17:29Jordan Tese.
17:32With a beauty.
17:411-1 it is.
17:42Well, perhaps not used to being that far forward because of his midfield role tonight.
18:00But it's an absolute blockbuster.
18:02One touch.
18:05Then the hit.
18:10Plenty of power but a fair amount of swerve.
18:13That's what actually beat Donnarumma in the end.
18:17Left grasping thin air.
18:19And City might have bags of danger going forward, but the way football is played these days, rock solid defending, is only a gift to very few.
18:34Even the mighty clubs, it's more about scoring than stopping.
18:37And they couldn't stop that one.
18:40And suddenly the potential for Monaco has turned into a moment of fulfilment.
18:48And really confidence boosting.
18:50City only led for three minutes.
18:51And I think just before that, Balogun missed completely the header.
19:01Barrio.
19:03Doku.
19:08Good work by Koulibaly.
19:11To drive on through and making PS just knock it out of play.
19:22In the midst of the joy, there's a little bit of concern here for...
19:30Vanderson.
19:32Who just pulled up.
19:33That does look more like a muscle injury than anything that's caused by impact.
19:54They have really been blighted by injuries, even to get this starting line-up out.
19:59And Adi Huter must be thinking, what have I done to deserve this?
20:06Because he knows...
20:09He knows he's got to go off and he's out of the game.
20:13A game that was going so well and he was pushing himself hard and pushing down that right-hand side and pushing City back.
20:19And even stretching, that's maybe a torn muscle.
20:32Not just a strained one.
20:33Not just a strained one.
20:39Well, that's, as they say, what you have a squad for.
20:43It's a depleted squad.
20:45An agonizing injury for the right-back.
20:54Can't believe they're waiting for a signal from the far side to the bench.
21:08A walkie-talkie system.
21:12And the change is made.
21:15Kasum Ouattara, who's a youngster, 20, comes from Paris.
21:18More of a left-back, really, than a right-back.
21:21And it's so distressing to see Henderson like that after so much joy sharing the team.
21:36And maybe a bit more joy there.
21:38Look for a moment as it might materialize.
21:40Siti being pushed back.
21:56Stones.
22:03Here's Ruben Diaz.
22:07Bernardo Silva.
22:08A lot of speculation that there would be goals tonight.
22:13Only really based on the fact that they were 12 in that two games in the round of 16 in 2017.
22:22The incident is another little pointer today.
22:25City won that home length 5-3.
22:27Well, their youth team are playing tandem.
22:29I'm sure you know the system.
22:31They're out here and they played earlier today.
22:33And they beat their Monaco counterparts by five goals to three.
22:36Here's Bernardo Silva.
22:39Stones.
22:40Attempted chip forward by Antifati.
22:41Here's O'Reilly.
22:42Just past the halfway mark in the first half and it's been very eventful and very entertaining.
22:47Rodri.
22:48Rodri.
22:50Foden.
22:51Stopped by Salisu.
22:52It's a race on here.
22:53It's a race on here.
22:54And Pallagrin has pushed it too far ahead but he looked as though he was going to win the race.
22:57Then Aqliouche looked as though he was going to get away.
22:58And he might still.
22:59Is he onside?
23:00Flag has stayed down.
23:01Had to slide it through for Flo Balagrin as he was known in his time in England.
23:04He was going to get away.
23:05And he might still.
23:06Is he onside?
23:07And he had a sniff for the first team.
23:08He's got a breath.
23:09And he was onside.
23:10Heared down.
23:11And he had a sniff.
23:12There was a walk.
23:13And he's onside.
23:14And they are also able to get away.
23:15Wendry.
23:16Foden.
23:17Stopped by Salisu.
23:18It's a race on here.
23:19And Pallagrin has pushed it too far ahead but he looked as though he was going to win
23:20the race.
23:21Then Aqliouche looked as though he was going to get away.
23:22And he might still.
23:23Is he onside?
23:24Flag has stayed down.
23:26And he's going to slide it through for Flo Balagrin as he was known in his time in England.
23:32Arsenal, he had a sniff of the first team.
23:41Here's Bernardo Silva.
23:48And Roger.
23:51Potem.
23:56Roger, of course, a score of a winning goal in the Champions League final.
24:02I'm feeling that when he didn't play, he would never win.
24:14And here's Bernardo Silva, and that actually, for him,
24:18he'd be disappointed he got this close to the goalkeeper.
24:21It actually took a deflection off Guattara.
24:25He was aiming wider that far post, hoping to get it to bend in,
24:29which we've seen him do many times, of course.
24:32He's going to stay in... not quite.
24:37He's going to... a gallop from Coulibaly.
24:42They have a very good youth system here.
24:57A number of players, three of them on the pitch now, but a number of them in the squad have come through on the production line.
25:09So, of course, the city's development scheme.
25:22Roger.
25:23that's a little bit of encouragement do a bit of retrieving by the old way he could do it
25:32Monaco we're not going to get out of their defensive slots position where they had
25:41a very little chance of winning the ball that's the danger era went a long way to make a challenge
26:04and look three five city players forward here on a silver to Rodri Foden to some extent Monaco
26:19regroup now O'Reilly behind us
26:34stones from first time ball from Foden quickly stones he's only missed a couple of weeks but he
26:43has had a year or so of injuries stop start time that tends to come of course when you get a little
26:51bit older he's only 31 playing a lot of games
26:54Rodri
26:59Ruben Diaz
27:08Guardiola 1-1 here
27:11in the East and Louis the second second of the two goals and he got the locals off their seats
27:24good ball from Reinders into his fellow midfielder
27:38Reinders against Foden
27:42making a bit of a meal of getting away this time Reinders weaving on and a whisker away
27:52they've been passing around that area so an individual surge a bit of a surprise for Monaco
28:05it did look as though there was a deflection on the shot
28:08initially just trying to get
28:15in that threatening position again
28:18fine goalscorer over a hundred goals from Manchester City but
28:24up there as an assister as well
28:35back with O'Reilly
28:38just signed a new long-term deal
28:41some talk that he might be loaned out in the last transfer window or even sold but
28:48he always is a he's a master lad
28:51play here he was saying before the game he watched the match between the City and Monaco
28:58the 5-3 at the Etihad Stadium
29:05years ago as a young boy he was cheering City on now he is helping them play on and he's in space here
29:12Niko O'Reilly
29:19Doku
29:20Rodri
29:21around the back is Bernardo Silva trying to loop it into where he thought Haaland might be
29:29he had a picture of where he might be
29:36he was on the move towards his captain
29:42there's no margin for error in those tight situations
29:46half an hour gone
29:48he's getting the better of Balogun
29:59here comes the stones but there is Haaland I think coming back from an offside position
30:07now from Kera by Gladio
30:30this time
30:31certainly jarred by the Monaco equalizer but getting back into the sort of rhythm they were showing
30:37the first 15 minutes
30:38they did take the lead
30:39Rodri
30:40O'Reilly
30:41O'Reilly
30:44O'Reilly
30:45O'Reilly
30:46O'Reilly
30:51O'Reilly
30:52O'Reilly
30:54O'Reilly
30:55O'Reilly
30:56O'Reilly
30:57O'Reilly
30:58O'Reilly
30:59O'Reilly
31:01O'Reilly
31:02O'Reilly
31:04O'Reilly
31:06O'Reilly
31:07O'Reilly
31:08O'Reilly
31:09O'Reilly
31:10O'Reilly
31:11O'Reilly
31:12O'Reilly
31:13Plenty of passing, plenty of concentration needed by the home defenders, the home team
31:24that they're all defending, it's Ruben Diaz, trying to ease it on, not quite on the same
31:36way, went that time as Bernardo Silva, this again, the possession stats are rising in favor
31:49of Manchester City, it passes, but it's a level on the scoreline, Foden trying to shimmy
32:03his way through, underside of the bar, right down close to the line, he can shoot with
32:10his right foot as you've just seen, Rodri, O'Reilly, he's so close to regaining the lead
32:20here, no appeals, the ball had gone over the line from the visiting players,
32:33O'Reilly, I just feel the temperature is rising in terms of Manchester City's efficiency
32:42and add to that their individual brilliance, it's a wearing down process that's going
32:48on at the moment, Rodri, Bernardo Silva, here's Foden, sprinting through again, Vicarra, O'Reilly
33:09gets his head to it, Bernardo Silva, and it's all like Keepe up, he's there, and you can
33:16see Rodri's volley, this was the one, this will tell you how far in front of the line it
33:31was not much, but certainly enough, no doubt that the loss of Anderson has taken away an outlet,
33:45he was doing well down that far side, now others will have to take on the responsibility,
33:52see Clioge, are they going to get there first, there's the old blocks, around for a corner,
34:00Kera, just emerged from a real pummeling on the edge of the area, they stayed on their feet
34:15so to speak, Salisu, again Monaco, that's a foul by the Riders, on Ansu Vate, Salisu will make
34:45his way forward, and Dier, and Kera, the scorer of the goal, going to be the taker of the
35:02free kick, Jordan TezĂŠ, high line from Manchester City, plenty of room to drop it into, TezĂŠ,
35:13oh, Dier, he's just too far ahead of his head, reach too high really for him to get a foot
35:23up to it, Dier's been signed from Bayern Munich where he went with his former Tottenham clubmate,
35:35now he came, Rodri,
35:43Rodri,
35:47right, it's so hard to create two against one situations, three against two, it's that
36:00little overload, someone in to score a goal, O'Reilly really connected with that, so Kern was strong by his near post,
36:14just sort of came there, opportunist one hit, rolling across, it's not always easy to hit the target like that, but that was a
36:29very decent effort, matched by a very decent save,
36:33Kliouche, Koulibaly, Kera, space here for Koulibaly,
36:35Koulibaly, Kera, space here for Koulibaly,
36:39Kliouche, Kouibaly, Kera, space here for Koulibaly,
36:57there's a foul...
36:59there's a foul, but
37:00Kouibaly
37:01K Real to
37:04play on,
37:05Kliouche,
37:07Kriouche,
37:09Kriouche,
37:11Kliush, like what he saw in the centre, a posse of tall Manchester City defenders, concentrated
37:26on keeping possession to try another route, a low road, free kick to Manchester City.
37:41Bonnarumma offending the referee to the point of getting a yellow card.
38:10Gunning for goalkeepers I think these days with the potential time-wasting rests with goalkeepers,
38:17suggesting delaying restarts they should take quicker but also if they don't have to go off the field if they get treatment for an injury,
38:28that can be used and there's no-one in the refereeing circles who's a qualified doctor, as far as I know anyway,
38:35who can say you're not injured, get on with it.
38:38It's a bit of a loophole in the law, most of the fan outfield player is injured,
38:43of course he has to go off for a minute if the physio comes on, if he has a head injury, it's also now mandatory if the physio's on or not.
38:50the physio's on or not.
38:54Ruben Diaz.
38:57Now Riley.
38:59Much movement to get the play around the outside, so Riley did then very much a Manchester City trademark.
39:15Kevin De Bruyne was wonderful at it.
39:20Bernardo Silva.
39:24Grogi.
39:25Gravio.
39:26There's not much room for Doku, crowded either by double marking but also by team-mates running into his area.
39:42Here's Bernardo Silva.
39:45Five minutes to go, plus added time before half-time.
39:48Intriguing battle.
39:50Nice day two.
39:51The way for Champions League.
40:01Reinders.
40:04Now Stones.
40:05Riley.
40:06Again, it was a poor first touch by his standards.
40:20Kliush.
40:24There was much contact there.
40:27That's the opinion shared by the referee.
40:29Kliush really looking for contact that didn't materialise.
40:32Not so badly that he was accused of assimilation.
40:47Stones.
40:48Ireland.
40:50Back to Rodri.
40:54And there's Silva.
40:57Stones outside him.
40:58But...
40:59Checked back in that direction.
41:00He kept going across the pitch, as you can see.
41:06Foden.
41:11Still going.
41:12He got past Fatih rather easily.
41:15All stuck to his foot, Phil Foden.
41:18Lovely move by Bernardo Silva.
41:21Cross in.
41:22And Haaland will follow it up.
41:24Hit the side netting of the shot from Reinders.
41:27Looks as though it might bobble its way into that far corner.
41:35Pass count rises.
41:37The potential for a second Manchester City goal rises.
41:42Goalkeeper did well.
41:43Wasn't the hardest struck shot, but he still needed saving.
41:45Tijani Reinders.
41:46The grab at it.
41:47Forced it just wide enough for the goal to make it too awkward even for Haaland to turn in.
42:00Here's the substitute.
42:02Watara.
42:04It's a good ball to Aklioz.
42:06She was momentarily one-on-one.
42:09Thanks Dias.
42:12This is where he scored from.
42:14It is it.
42:16Went for the pass this time.
42:17Three fantastic substitute appearances for Ansu Fatih.
42:30Went to England on loan.
42:31Had a spell with Brighton the season before last.
42:34Really settled.
42:39It's a very bright start to life here.
42:42I'm pretty sure he'll have another.
42:43It's in Barcelona.
42:44We'll take him back.
42:45Although it might be an option to buy.
42:51Akio is known more for selling than buying.
42:56Here's O'Reilly.
42:58City looking to regain the lead before half-time but running out of time to do it.
43:02Roku.
43:08Roku again.
43:10Foden.
43:12Back to O'Reilly.
43:14Haaland.
43:15Leaping.
43:16And he's placed it to perfection.
43:19And they do have the lead.
43:21Back again.
43:23Before the break.
43:26And it's a double for Erling Haaland with plenty of time to add in the second half.
43:32With this prodigious goalscorer both in size and ability.
43:39Needed a bit of direction.
43:41Wasn't that much pace on the ball in.
43:44From O'Reilly.
43:45He's rather hung up.
43:46But he just pushed it with his forehead towards that far post from his point of view.
43:53And in it went.
43:55He will tell you that he's had to work on his heading through the years that have made him the player that he is today.
44:04It's not something that came absolutely naturally.
44:07Of course he has an advantage with his natural size.
44:10But when you add the ability that he's almost taught himself really.
44:15That's what you get.
44:17And it's Monaco 1, Manchester City 2.
44:19In the last minute of regulation time before half-time.
44:22Before half-time.
44:39Here's Salisu.
44:44Just one added minute.
44:53Here's Diata.
44:59As they do it again.
45:00City were more alert to it that time.
45:02But Monaco still have the ball.
45:04Atliouge.
45:06Claudio needed to touch that behind.
45:08He's done it only at the expense of a corner though.
45:12It's just going to be time for this to be taken.
45:26By Tese.
45:28Dier really has one run that he loves to do towards the near post.
45:35I think that's part of Monaco's plans.
45:37We're about to find out.
45:39He's played deep.
45:41Vladiol is there again.
45:44And Donnarumma will boss that.
45:49And holds on till the half-time whistle.
45:51Whether City will hold on.
45:53We'll see.
45:54They have been the dominant.
46:08Contrast.
46:09Monaco finished 17th in the league phase last season.
46:12They also went out at the same stage to Benfica.
46:17They've been out of the...
