Julián Álvarez’s magnificent assistance to Haaland at Manchester City for the FA Cup

The key to the goal at the Etihad stadium, in the duel valid for the quarterfinals of the FA Cup between Manchester City and Burnley, was at the feet of Julián Álvarez. For this occasion, Josep Guardiola decided to include the Argentine striker from minute zero along with the Norwegian attacker Erling Haaland and the duo paid off: El Araña masterfully assisted his teammate and thus Pep’s men broke the score.

It was at minute 32 that Haaland received a long ball from German goalkeeper Stefan Ortega Moreno and pivoted for an Álvarez who acts in the field behind his line, along with the Algerian Riyad Mahrez, the Belgian Kevin De Bruyne and the British Phil Foden. The former River was left in three quarters of the field with the ball dominated and open field, just when he leaked a ball that left the imposing Norwegian face to face with goalkeeper Bailey Peacock-Farrell, who had just scored five goals in the Champions League against Leipzig and it didn’t fail.

A while later, the Burnley defense again suffered from the offensive power of City. This time, the one who assisted the Nordic gunner was Foden, who as a left winger left him alone and alone at the door of the small area. Haaland, with impressive numbers since he arrived at the Mancunian team, scored the second at minute 35.

This is one of the four keys to the quarterfinals of the FA Cup. Tomorrow there will be a busy triple shift day with the other matches: Sheffield United-Blackburn Rovers (from 9), Brighton And Hove Albion-Grimsby Town (at starting at 11:15) and Manchester United-Fulham (starting at 1:30 p.m.).
