00:01Building to a crescendo all week and very shortly it will be for real.
00:06We have all the action for you live.
00:09And a warm welcome. Our venue today is the Etihad Stadium here in Manchester.
00:15My name is Derek Ray and sitting alongside me in the commentary position
00:18is the former Arsenal and West Ham midfield player Stuart Robson.
00:22And the general feeling is we should be in for a spellbinding occasion.
00:26It is Manchester City and they take on Juventus.
00:30Well, this should be a decent game today. Both managers will have a game plan.
00:34Both teams have a certain style of play and both sides will want to start quickly.
00:38I'm looking forward to this.
00:41And here's the Manchester City line-up. Gianluigi Donnarumma is the keeper.
00:46Ruben Dias plays alongside Josko Gwatiol in central defence.
00:51Phil Foden plays alongside Rodri in the centre of midfield.
00:55And providing the main goal-scoring threat today is Erling Haaland.
01:01Well, going for power from there, but not worrying the goalkeeper on the slightest.
01:11Haaland.
01:14The ball with Rodri.
01:17Jeremy D'Ocu.
01:21Foden.
01:24Can he find the angle?
01:26And possession secure.
01:27Keeper's ball.
01:35To Ram.
01:41And possibilities here.
01:51Chances on.
01:55Riley didn't miss by an awful lot.
02:17Lloyd Kelly.
02:21Now with Kalulu.
02:27Well, doesn't have to do it on his own.
02:31Good through ball.
02:34Oh, beating his opponent with ease.
02:36And keeping it out.
02:38Oh, it's a penalty.
02:40Can they get themselves in front?
02:42And flashing the yellow card on top.
02:45Yeah, deserved the card for that challenge.
02:50This to open the scoring here.
02:53And he puts it away confidently.
02:58Sees the keeper go slightly early and just lifts it down the middle.
03:02Brilliant goal.
03:06So, the ball rolling again with the scoreline standing at 1-0.
03:12Who wants to make a challenge?
03:16Oh, the threat level is still high.
03:19Well, that's a sad end to the attack.
03:25Kenan Yildiz.
03:28Now with Kambi Azo.
03:30And tidy defensive play.
03:32They're much harder to break down in those areas, aren't they?
03:57Well, he really should be working the goalkeeper there.
04:03It's a great chance to score.
04:13What can he do with it now?
04:16Well, it didn't go as a plan in the end.
04:23Getting right into his face.
04:28Kaloulou.
04:30Locatelli with it.
04:33Francisco Conceição.
04:44Reinders.
04:44Reinders.
04:45And the counter-attack looks on.
04:49Can they do it?
04:51And that's how they need it.
04:52Manchester City.
04:53A goal.
04:54Top level matters here.
05:01Well, let's see this again.
05:03This is counter-attacking football at its very best.
05:05And Foden gets that little bit of space in the box to finish it really well.
05:10That's a very good goal.
05:12And they're back underway.
05:14One goal apiece here.
05:29Phil Foden.
05:35The referee has decided to give the free-kick decision the way of City.
05:46We're using the space really well
05:48But now can they push on
05:52A fine reading of the situation
05:54A City free kick for coming
06:00Oh danger here
06:02Oh a really crisp effort
06:04But just wide
06:18Very alert defending to put a stop
06:20To the chance
06:23Now opening things up
06:25Can he do it
06:26To Saint-Domingue
06:27Well that's how to defend in those situations
06:33Lloyd Kelly
06:38Concey Sau
06:41Good ball to switch the play
06:44And a really good run
06:46But they took care of the situation defensively
06:52Might do damage on the break
06:55Well annoyingly nothing comes of it
07:00Locatelli
07:03And on to Concey Sau
07:06Vlaovic
07:08The Bianconeri have given us away
07:21Well the threat could be there
07:24Handling Haaland
07:25A goal here
07:27Giving his team precisely what they were looking for
07:30Now he deserves to celebrate it
07:37Well as we see it again
07:39He was never going to miss that was he
07:40That's a really simple finish in the end
07:52So back underway
07:53Intriguing contest this
07:55Given the 2-1 scoreline
07:58Concey Sau
08:07Given away by City
08:17Just one minute of stoppage time
08:19Say the officials
08:26And there we have it
08:27That brings to an end
08:29The first half
08:29Here at the Etihad
08:43So the match has restarted
08:45Here in Manchester
08:55Federico Gatti
08:59Locatelli
09:02Now with Kalulu
09:09Juventus have given us away
09:12City moving the ball forward
09:14What can they do from here
09:16It's a substitution for Juventus
09:24O'Reilly
09:25And all with Rodri
09:28And he might be through here
09:30And he's made it a brace for himself
09:33And the defender's just unable to stay with him
09:36And he's having a field day
09:42Just look at the defending here
09:44The keeper is left
09:45Totally exposed
09:45It's an easy goal in the end
09:47But well taken
09:52No shortage of goals on this match
09:543-1
10:03Reinders
10:07Reinders
10:08Are showing good patience
10:10And just like that
10:11They don't have the ball anymore
10:16To Ram
10:19And on to Yildiz
10:26He's in with a chance
10:27Oh goalkeeping
10:29Heroics
10:30Well he's done brilliantly there
10:32He's reacted so quickly to that shot
10:36And the short option preferred
10:41Delivered into the box
10:45Oh sloppy passing
10:51Francisco Conceição
10:55Priority was to hang on to the ball
10:57Which he did
11:03He's in here
11:07And there it is
11:08Three goals in front now
11:10An immense performance
11:19Well just look at this again
11:20The speed of counter attack is so impressive
11:23And once he gets onto it
11:24He just smashes it past the keeper
11:26With great technique
11:27What an emphatic finish that is
11:32Kenan Yildiz
11:36Locatelli
11:37Could be threatening
11:46Thoughtful play
11:50Oh surely
11:52Well you get the feeling
11:54He really wants his second goal of the game
11:56Don't you
11:56Well I think he's played well today
11:58His movement has been excellent
12:00That was a decent chance
12:01To get his second of the game
12:03Well a bad attempt
12:05Not troubling the goalkeeper
12:06And the slightest
12:07Well in the end
12:08The defender just about did enough
12:15Phil Foden
12:18They need to get tighter
12:19They need to get tighter
12:20But nothing comes of it
12:21Good defending it was
12:25Okay friend to ramp
12:35Annoyingly there it breaks down
12:39It's going to be a city ball
12:42And a Juventus
12:44And a Juventus personnel change here
12:53Turncorp
12:53Turncorp
12:53Turncorp miners
12:56Space here for Yildiz
13:02He fancies it
13:03Well good clean catch by the keeper
13:08Can they make something of this now
13:17Can they make something of this now
13:49Took a really smart piece of defending to stop them
13:51Well they made some good decisions
13:53Well they made some good decisions there
14:25Phil Foden
14:30And the pass deftly cut out
14:35Kenan Yildiz
14:36Could be dangerous from Yildiz
14:39Well let's see about the cross
14:40The clearance wasn't decisive
14:43Well threat's over for now
14:46O'Reilly
14:47Well he's certainly not alone
14:50Quick counter could be on
14:53Well annoyingly
14:54Nothing comes of it
15:00There's ten minutes remaining here
15:03What a brilliant pass
15:04Now unable to bend his run
15:07Offside
15:19Rodri
15:23Rinders
15:25Oh he's through here
15:28And that was it
15:30That will probably seal on victory
15:32If there were any lingering doubts
15:44Just look at this again
15:46It's so hard to knock off the ball once he gets going
15:49Of course the defending could be better
15:51But that's a great individual goal
15:54Underway again
15:55But to my mind
15:56This game is now as good as over
16:00Francisco Concey-san
16:02Given away by City
16:07Oh beating his opponent with ease
16:16Rodri
16:18Now can they hit them on the counter
16:30This looks interesting
16:54Well as you can see
16:55What an excellent back hill this is
16:57To set up the goal
16:58And Haaland wasn't going to miss that one
17:00From that sort of range
17:01He was always going to score
17:02What a well-constructed goal
17:05Three minutes of added time here
17:10Locatelli
17:11Danger building
17:16Kostic has it
17:19Well that's not exactly what was required
17:26Corner kick played in
17:31Well that's the end of that for now
17:32And there's the final whistle
17:34It goes into the books
17:35As a City victory
17:36You're absolutely right
17:38Their attack in play was excellent
17:39Full of energy and pace
17:41And the midfield completely dominated the game
17:43It was a great all-round performance
17:45And there's the end of that
17:50It was a good thing
17:52It was a good thing
17:53And there are 22
17:55It was the prior to us
17:56Ye
17:57Back to you
17:59Hey
17:59Hey
