Watch the Game Highlights from Manchester City vs. Borussia Dortmund, 11/05/2025
Transcript
00:00Where he spent three years before he moved here to Manchester City.
00:21He is back in the Champions League starting 11. Soju Gourassi will spearhead the attack fresh
00:27from scoring the winner in the Bundesliga against Augsburg.
00:32He actually gave his players a day off, they trained this morning,
00:36an unusual build-up compared to what they tend to do. Here's Foden, got hold of that one.
00:44And from point-blank range it's hoisted over the top.
00:47He's got to actually tip this over the bar or certainly not push it out into a dangerous area.
00:51Good play by Savinho, you can see he was offside, had he scored.
00:55It ain't okay if Foden has scored but not Savinho. It's just an absolutely riot to put his play.
01:06Foden, little tester for Kerbal.
01:13Sites at Manchester City are just starting to walk to their task.
01:17Foden finding a pocket of space. Oh, that's lovely.
01:30Vintage Phil Foden. What a classy finish from the Manchester City man to give them the lead.
01:38Manchester City 1, Borussia Dortmund 0.
01:41Well, he just finds that little pocket of space.
01:49He's got such a good left foot, we saw it earlier when he hit it with power.
01:53It was easily saved by Kerbal.
01:56That time, he just almost passes it into the corner.
02:02And that's the role he's playing really.
02:04He's one of the midfield three, but he has got the licence just to drift closer to...
02:14Haaland.
02:18And the save over the top can do when he gets involved in the play.
02:22He doesn't always get involved in the play enough for me.
02:24There he's picked up the ball, great strength, driving through a good pass as well to O'Reilly.
02:30And remember, that's the left-back.
02:32In the centre-forward position, right on the penalty spot.
02:36Ball slightly behind him, scoops it rather than passing it into the corner.
02:41Savinho to have another run at Pantsebaini.
02:49A little deflection made it very awkward for Kerbal, who did well.
02:54Strong enough hand on it.
02:55A doku comes.
02:57And Haaland!
02:58The celebration may be a little muted against his former club.
03:09But there was nothing muted about the finish.
03:12He bangs home a second for Manchester City.
03:19Wonderful injection of pace and Reinders has a good old crack.
03:22And Haaland can't control the follow-up and get it on target.
03:26It's the best place to run into.
03:27I'm not sure that Nunez's run was a particularly good one,
03:31but it fell nicely for Reinders.
03:38Adeyemi.
03:43Good first there from Adeyemi, who forces the save from Donnarumma.
03:49Up against Svensson, who has been booked, remember.
03:52Svensson's found that bit of space to Mecha.
04:04And the Aimee was coming infield.
04:08Here's Kirassi.
04:10Sends it well wider the Manchester City goal.
04:12Half-time substitution.
04:14So it will be as we were from the start.
04:19And Manchester City get this second period underway.
04:23Looking comfortable with that two-goal cushion.
04:26Question is, Stuart, how do Dortmund get Manchester City out of that comfort zone?
04:32Well, they've got to be more of a threat on the counter-attack.
04:37I think they've got to go back to how they started the game,
04:39where they got the ball forward quite quickly from the goalkeeper.
04:42Got it in to Kirassi.
04:44Other players supported him.
04:47And then play from there.
04:49At the moment, when Man City win it in good areas,
04:52they look a real threat.
04:54It's been good pace from Savino and Doku.
04:56And this man as well, Rinders.
05:00Rinders, who has one assist already.
05:04The venomous shot on goal that was saved.
05:06This is Savino.
05:09And Goebel in action in the opening seconds of the second half.
05:11A good save here.
05:12Savino going down the outside again.
05:15Showing that he has got a right foot as well,
05:17trying to go across the goalkeeper.
05:20Goebel.
05:22Only does he save it, he gets enough on it.
05:27Foden, here's Haaland.
05:30O'Reilly forward, Haaland onto it.
05:31This is Doku.
05:32Haaland takes the shot.
05:36No foul.
05:40City sees on it with Rinders.
05:42To Haaland.
05:47Doku.
05:51Nico Gonzalez.
05:52Reinders into Foden.
05:56Lovely quick feet from Foden.
05:59And another sumptuous strike from Phil Foden.
06:02Goebel.
06:13A third for Manchester City.
06:14A second for...
06:21Mecha sinking the steal, and doing so.
06:23Geirassi now.
06:24No offside flag.
06:26And no way past Donnarumura either.
06:29who was very tightly marked, he played it into O'Reilly, they give the ball away.
06:35Guilassi gets it, there's no really other option but to try and shoot.
06:38That's a good save from Donnarumma.
06:42Just tries to go for power.
06:45Just about gets the top part of his arm on it.
06:48And those spells of scoring really important goals for the club as well, hasn't he?
06:57What a lovely ball that is!
06:59What a lovely ball!
07:03Finished off by Valdemar Anton.
07:07The centre-half in the position of the centre-forward.
07:11And a lifeline for Dortmund with 20 to play.
07:17An injury hit, start to the season.
07:22Start of his first Premier League match at the weekend, the Frenchman.
07:26Donnarumma work on several occasions, got crosses into the box as well.
07:37Good run here and a fabulous finish.
07:40And that will take care of business.
07:42Ryan Schierke off the bench to make sure a fourth for City.
07:52Well, what a good goal this is.
07:53Need of love this night.
07:53A thumping win in the end for Manchester City.
07:54Four goals doing the job.
07:55Still unbeaten, winning again.
