Manchester City won against Newcastle 1-0 at Etihad and joined Brighton as the only teams with 2 victories from the first 2 matches in the Premier League.
The Sky Blues triumphed in the Super Cup a few days ago against Seville, and despite that, Pep Guardiola didn’t make any substitutes during the whole match and still won.

Julian Alvarez scored the 1st and only goal in the match with a fantastic shot after Phil Foden’s assist.
Newcastle had a few chances to score, but the final pass was the big problem tonight for the Magpies as Man. City were the better side overall.
Phil Foden won the Man of the Match as he deserved the award.
Manchester City have won their last 15 home Premier League games against Newcastle United. It is their best home form against any Premier League opponent.
