After the first round of the Premier League, Manchester City ranked first after defeating Wolves 4-0 away. The top four are Tottenham, Sunderland and Liverpool. The teams with 3 points include Nottingham Forest, Arsenal and Leeds United. The Blue Moon showed the sharpness of the offensive end in the first round. The team's goal contributors were Haaland, Rhines and Serky. The former scored twice and was the first contributor in the team. This striker's ability to abuse food is still outstanding. In other championship groups, Liverpool 4-2 Bournemouth, Tottenham 3-0 Burnley, Arsenal 1-0 Manchester United, and Chelsea 0-0 Crystal Palace. There are 9 teams that failed to score in the first round, including Chelsea and Manchester United, and the Red and Blues need to improve their goal efficiency.

In fact, Manchester City started a bit slow to start. The team's offensive threats were insufficient in the first 30 minutes, the high-level defense was not tacit enough, the middle-level confrontation was not hard enough, and the wing was too loose, which almost gave Wolves a chance to take advantage of it. However, as the game progressed, Manchester City gradually found the rhythm of the game. In this game, new player Reindes is undoubtedly one of the biggest highlights of this game. He became Manchester City's midfield core in his Premier League debut, and it was indeed surprising that he participated in the first three goals. After the game, Reindez was elected the best player in the game.

Manchester City broke the deadlock in the 34th minute. Reindes dribbled the ball in the frontcourt and sent a pass, giving Haaland an assist in the first record. Just two minutes later, he received Bob's oblique plug and stepped forward to the left side of the penalty area to score a low shot, helping the team expand its lead. In the 61st minute, he knocked back in the right side of the penalty area, creating a scoring opportunity for Haaland again. Reindez's outstanding performance not only demonstrates his personal strength, but also allows people to see his seamless connection with the team. After the game, the general was also recognized by the coach.

In addition to Reindes, other Manchester City players also performed well. Haaland continued his efficient goal-scoring ability and scored twice in this game, once again proving his strength as a top scorer. His running position and shooting ability in the penalty area are still a nightmare for his opponent. Whether he receives a pass from his teammate or creates opportunities by himself, he can calmly score the ball. Serky, who came on as a substitute, also performed well. In the 81st minute, he got the ball from the top of the penalty area and got a slight adjustment. After a low shot, he scored to secure the victory for the team. His goals not only demonstrated his outstanding personal ability, but also added more options to the team's offense. On the

Defense line, Manchester City's overall defense line was solid, although Wolves created some opportunities in the second half. Although goalkeeper Trafford is the first time he starts in the Premier League for Manchester City, his performance is eye-catching. He made many wonderful saves to ensure that the goal was not lost. Left-back Ait Nu played against his old main players all over the game, with excellent offense and defense. He touched the ball in this game, with 6 steals, 6 clearances and 3 interceptions. These data ranked first in the game, providing strong guarantee for the team's defense. Although the Wolves lost a big score in this game, their performance was not useless. Judging from the game process, the Wolves also created some threats, not just blindly defending, but just failed to seize some opportunities.

In the 18th minute, fans of Wolves stood up and heard applause. The late Portuguese star Jota once played for Wolves. Some fans raised Jota's No. 18 jersey when he was with Wolves. This scene shows the deep feelings of Wolves fans for the team and their nostalgia for Jota, and also injected spiritual strength into the team. On the offensive end, the Wolves had several threatening attacks in the first half. In the 26th minute, Munesi scored a ball in front and shot. Although the lineman raised the flag and signaled an offside first, this offense showed the Wolves' enthusiasm on the offensive end. In the 29th minute, Munesi stepped forward in the penalty area and shot, but the ball was saved by the goalkeeper, which also showed their offensive attempt. In the second half, Wolves also had a chance to rewrite the score. In the 49th minute, Larson followed up and shot, and the ball hit the side net. 10 minutes later, Larson shot from a small angle from the right side of the penalty area, and the ball was lifted out of the crossbar by the goalkeeper. In the 78th minute, Larson took the ball from the left side of the penalty area, shook the angle and shot, and the ball was saved by the goalkeeper.

For Manchester City, winning is good, but the team has also exposed some problems, such as slow start and insufficient tacit understanding of defense. Manchester City will play against Tottenham Hotspur in the second round of the league on the evening of August 23. This game is a strong dialogue, and it is not easy for the team to win in a row. The Wolves will play against Bournemouth away, and the team may score points in this game.
