In the early morning of October 22, the third round of the Champions League group stage reignited the war. Defending champion Manchester City challenged La Liga powerhouse Villarreal away from home. With goals from Haaland and Bernardo Silva, Blue Moon easily defeated their opponents 2-0 and won three consecutive Champions League victories. Nordic striker Haaland is in hot form, scoring in 12 consecutive games in all competitions and continuing to set records!

After the game started, Villarreal, who played at home, played relatively cautiously. They faced the Blue Moon Legion, which is worth 629 million euros. He is only worth 150 million euros, and Guardiola is very familiar with La Liga teams. The Spanish coach became famous in this league. Soon Manchester City, who played away games, quickly entered the state and began to attack the Yellow Submarine defense one after another.

In the 17th minute, Lewis inserted on the right and sent a precise low pass. Haaland arrived immediately and scored with a blast. Manchester City led 1-0. This is the 12th consecutive game in which the Norwegian striker has scored, setting a new record for consecutive goals in his career.

In the 40th minute, Manchester City struck again. The young Brazilian teenager Savinho broke through from the right and sent a precise cross from an angle. Bernardo Silva scored with a header, helping Manchester City expand the score to 2-0. At halftime, the ball possession rate was as high as 69%, and the number of shots was 8 to 2, firmly controlling the game.

Change sides and fight again. Villarreal made decisive substitutions and adjustments. Cardona came on to strengthen the offense, but the offense still failed to improve and could not threaten Donnarumma at all. The Blue Moon Army created murderous opportunities many times. First, Nicolas Pepe volleyed from close range, but unfortunately the ball went over the crossbar, and then Haaland's low shot was saved by the goalkeeper. At the last moment, Oluwasei's header hit the post and popped out. In the end, the score was fixed at 2-0. Manchester City won three consecutive victories in the Champions League. Guardiola smiled broadly when he saw Haaland in such a hot state.

After the game, Guardiola said in an interview: "Haaland's goal was not an accident. He forces himself to improve every day. The team's performance today reassures me that we are returning to a familiar rhythm." Manchester City currently has 9 points in three wins in the Champions League, and it is only a matter of time before it enters the knockout rounds.
