An exciting midfield solution emerged in big games for Manchester City against PSG

Story updated

The story in brief

32-second read

Manchester City went in at halftime down 3-0 in their 4-2 defeat to PSG in their UEFA Champions League league phase fixture. Enzo Maresca’s side had been dominated by Luis Enrique’s side, as the level that City have to one day reach was on full display at the Etihad Stadium.

At halftime, Enzo Maresca took off Ruben Dias, Rayan Cherki and Jeremy Doku. They were replaced by Matheus Nunes, Ayyoub Bouaddi and Iliman Ndiaye. Those substitutions had the desired effect as City dominated the second half and were unlucky to lose 4-2.

The introduction of Ayyoub Bouaddi gave Manchester City more solidity in midfield. That tweak should be a move Maresca considers using from the start against quality opponents.
