[Hmm...] What a weekend of Football action it is. Early kick offs are now becoming a curse not only in the Premier League, but across the Leagues. Yesterday, it hurt Arsenal. Today Real Madrid fell victim, even though Napoli escaped and scored three goals after the opener. Guardiola's woes continues in the Tottenham stadium, Barcelona made team of the day and others... Let's talk:
.
TOTTENHAM – MANCHESTER CITY
Finally, Antonio Conte gets his revenge over Pep Guardiola. The bitter taste of losing the first round of this fixture after 2-0 up at half time must still hurt the Spurs mentality but they responded well on a day Pep Guardiola decides to bench Haaland helper; Kevin De Bruyne. Harry Kane's lone goal was more than enough. His 200th Premier League goals on a big stage. Do you see him playing for Tottenham next season?
.
SPEZIA – NAPOLI
The pronunciation of this name 'Kvaratskhelia' if done perfectly at first trial - Napoli will win World Cup [Hahahahahaha]. That's something impossible. Kvaratskhelia opened the scoring from the spot before Victor Osimhen took over the stage. Our very own guy with a sweet non-stress pronouncing name. He scored his 15th and 16th SERIE A goals this season. The Naples are ruling on top.
.
MALLORCA – REAL MADRID
Thibaut Courtois injures in the warm up, and Real Madrid concedes an early goal. Later on, Asensio missed from the spot and they lost huge 3 points in the title race. The day could not be more bitter for the white royals.
.
BARCELONA – SEVILLA
It's just a matter of time until we start singing high praises for Xavi. Even though he couldn't flourish his team in the Champions League early this season, it seems they are running away with the league trophy. A game at a time and the results are falling in the right places. Jordi Alba, Gavi and Raphinha scored the goals, one each.
.
WOLFSBURG – BAYERN
Joao CANCELO is a great addition to the squad for Bayern Munich. Two games, two assists. They are way ahead of others in the Bundesliga. Jamal Musiala be running the show the way he wishes and crowned it with goals. Coman tore the defense apart and he scored twice. Snr. Man Muller was also on the score sheet. A leader with a great example.
.
INTER – MILAN
Inter keeps getting the better off Milan. Early on, they grabbed the Italia Super Cup, and got a trump victory today. Milan is having a dreadful life after the World Cup. What is the problem? How can a defending Champions team be this cheap to defeat? Until they get back on track, their reputation is questionable.
