They dominated possession and forced Wolves to chase the game for the majority of the time. City were off to a flier as Jack Grealish scored in the first minute. He used his physicality to get in front of the defender in a tight area before squeezing the ball past Jose Sa. Kevin De Bruyne provided an assist for the goal. The hosts, known for their dogged style of defending, continued to sit deep and stay in rigid shape. However, Manchester City simply had too much firepower for Wolves. Erling Haaland extended his red-hot scoring streak, giving his side the lead after 16 minutes. Bernardo Silva provided an assist for the goal. Things went from bad to worse for Wolves as centre-back Nathan Collins was given his marching orders. He contested a bouncing ball with his leg and ended up hitting Grealish with a flying kick. It was a moment reminiscent of Nigel de Jong's kick to Xabi Alonso's chest in the 2010 FIFA World Cup Final. The hosts played the rest of the match with a man down.

Their low phase allowed Wolves to get into the game, giving them some space in midfield to string together some passes. Despite that, the hosts failed to muster a single shot on target. De Bruyne then provided his second assist of the night as he set up Phil Foden. Pep Guardiola made multiple substitutions, seeing that the game was beyond their opponents' reach. Despite the change in personnel, City maintained a good intensity. They attempted seven shots in the second period, of which three were on target. Manchester City's defended well in numbers as they comfortably saw out the rest of the time. That said, let's take a look at the five hits and flops from this game.
