About Duoku

I can clearly feel that Duoku's decision-making ability in offensive zone three has made a qualitative leap compared to the past, and his progress is simply amazing! Duoku now performs extremely well in assists, goals, and ability to see the gaps in defensiveness. Doku is a very threatening breakthrough for Manchester City when facing a team that takes a low post defense – this is crucial to us.

In the scene where the offense and defense conversion pace is fast, Duoku may encounter some challenges, but when the game enters a stalemate near the penalty area, his performance will become very impressive. When Doku cut into the penalty area, two or three defensive players were attracted by him, and in a one-on-one situation, his breakthrough was almost unstoppable. In the short range of five to ten yards, no winger can match Duoku, he can go both left and right, which means his teammates will get an undefensive crossing opportunity. The second goal of this game is the best example - Guvadior was able to complete the cross without anyone's interference because of Doku's restraint.

About Matthews Nunes

We need Nunes' physical fitness, we need his courage, speed and abundant physical fitness. Whether it is partnering with Gvadior or previously working with Husanov, he can complete defensive pursuit with his outstanding running ability. Burnley has used long pass tactics many times in this game, focusing on two-point penalty competition and offense and defense conversion, and Nunes can provide great help to the team in these links. As a midfielder, we also need him to have the vision to deliver accurate passes and complete assists. I would encourage him to continue to perform like this and constantly try to create opportunities.

The data about Haaland, who scored two goals for Manchester City in this game, is too crazy. We may joke about these data, but objectively speaking, such performance is simply incredible. Scoring goals is his job, and he is a crucial core figure in our team. Despite Burnley goalkeeper Dublafka's several wonderful saves, we always believe that Haaland will find a goal opportunity. Sometimes he may not be very involved in the game, but he can still create four absolute scoring opportunities - this is what makes Haaland unique.
