In the Premier League, Manchester City successfully completed their difficult move to Newcastle and they can thank Kevin De Bruyne for that. The Belgian turned the game around by appearing as a substitute, in which he scored and provided an assist to seal the win. “I missed it,” the star said after the game.
Kevin De Bruyne is not in Manchester City's starting lineup yet, but Jeremy Doku is. Belgian side City saw their goalkeeper withdrawn early: Ederson had to leave after a few minutes after colliding with Newcastle's Sean Longstaff.
In an exciting first half with varying opportunities, the guests advanced and how! Bernardo Silva put it 0-1 on the board behind his standing leg.
Newcastle did not need much time to recover from that blow. The home team got themselves back on their feet after just 10 minutes and this goal was worth watching too. Isak caught substitute keeper Ortega with a shot into the far corner.
Anthony Gordon thought it was a good goal and the young Englishman clearly took notice. And with a copy of Isak's goal, he completely turned the tables: 2-1.
Manchester City needed a touch of genius in the second half and then it was over quickly for Kevin De Bruyne. It was brought from the stable 20 minutes before time and it did not disappoint.
A few minutes after coming on, he pushed the ball past Newcastle goalkeeper Dubravka from the edge of the penalty area.
The 2-3 in extra time also got the stamp of Kevin De Bruyne. The Belgian put the ball over the Newcastle defense for 20-year-old Oscar Pope.
Thanks to the difficult victory, Manchester City remains behind leaders Liverpool, who have two additional points.
De Bruyne: “I missed it”
“I worked hard to come back,” De Bruyne told English television channel TNT Sports afterwards.
“I missed it. I had a serious injury and needed time to get back. I enjoyed myself today.”
He continued: “I think my performance today was related to willpower more than anything else.” “I can't do it for 90 minutes at the moment. At the moment, I can give it everything I have for 30 minutes. I feel it in my lungs, especially because of the cold.”
Oscar Pope, who came on as a substitute for Jeremy Doku in the 82nd minute, scored a brilliant assist from De Bruyne in the 91st minute to seal the win.
De Bruyne finished by saying: “My ball was good, but Oscar’s movements were unbelievable. If he didn’t make that move, I wouldn’t be able to make my pass.”
