hakan chanu starts alongside nikolo barela in the center of Midfield and leading the attack today Laro Martinez plays alongside Marcus Turan and a look at the starting 11 for Manchester City ederson is the goalkeeper Bernardo Silva plays with rodri in central Midfield and providing the main goal scoring threat today is erling H is this the moment and he's outdone himself wonderful save [Applause] there and the short option preferred angles it back blocking it Our Winning back [Applause] possession and the focus on Laro Martinez who is an uncomplicated sort of footballer and mean that in a positive way what do you think we'll see from him in this match well Derek he's a great all around player but it's ability to run in behind Defenders that makes him such a threat and when he gets one V one against the goalkeeper he usually scores Henrik mkhitarian very alert defending to cut off the [Applause] supply well an aimless clearance and that was down to the pressure D possession seated by City here exploiting the space on the flank alesandro Baston barela has it well they're moving the ball neatly enough just looking for that decisive pass mkhitarian theid to shoot what a commitment to defending who's going to get on the end of it well it was a crowded penalty area but the keeper done well to hold on to that [Applause] band well a good tackle it's fadoo Silva and you've got to credit that magnificent piece of Defending [Applause] and they have possession again City moving the ball forward what can they do from here well it came to nothing in the end Marcos Tuan still Level here but the pressure escalating well the supporters think it's on and defensive play to be [Applause] applauded and the advantages with City and there it is the Breakthrough that will do nicely [Applause] well here it is again he hits this so sweetly doesn't he that's a brilliant goal from a top class [Music] player well then restart the game it's going to be interesting to see how they reply to that setback and a throw coming up after that authoritative challenge danan chanu well they kept the shape defensively job done for now could be threatening Martinez and a goal an end to end game and they weren't behind for long [Music] well just look how easily Martinez drift past his opponent and the Finish from Martinez shows what a good technical player he is it's an excellent [Applause] goal so the ball is rolling again one Walker excellent use of Advantage from the referee in City's favor a very good tackle venturing forward mkhitaryan Martinez and he's kept it out fully stretched somehow reaching it they take it short they must clear their lines quickly barela oh he wasn't necessarily favorite to win that challenge Martinez the supporters want to see him have a go what a save corner kick played in and quick thinking defensively that's very effective good high [Applause] pressing foden and Inter doing well to win the ball back Martinez now with mkhitaryan back to turam how about the [Applause] cross well that takes the wind out of their sails great defending foden turam and a go this time applying the Finishing Touch just what the doctor ordered [Music] [Applause] well frustration for Pep Guardiola he needs to get a reaction from his players now and as they kick off again 2-1 the current state of [Applause] affairs can he find the right pass well nothing comes of it it looked promising Bernardo Silva It's a promising City move can he create an angle cuts it back brilliantly blocked berardo Silva well somehow the goalkeeper got to it short corner it is berardo Silva an important challenge but they must remain organized vital intervention now can they hit them on the [Applause] counter and it's going to run through to the keeper [Applause] here making progress and that a piece of goalkeeping you're going to see again and again and again so a personel change [Music] [Applause] then so the corner played into the box and the first half is in the history books here at the Mata [Applause] well Laro Martinez did look as though he was enjoying himself in the first half what did you make of him well I really liked his first half display he was certainly the most influential player on the field and I'm expecting more of the same in the second 45 minutes the ball is moving again City trailing going into the second half will they come come up with the right [Applause] response into recovering possession well well he could really get at the opposition Holland and foiled only by the crossbar well City can't believe they're not level here but they are looking dangerous [Applause] now rewarded for that brilliant High Press really good attacking play well not a Million Miles Away From The Equalizer well he couldn't quite Get It On Target but at least they're making chances now chanu Beek happy just to retain the ball in their own half and out the opposition toam and Inter could get in behind the defense but they dealt with the threat posed tan can he put it in well goal kick just as it was looking promising so making the substitution [Music] [Applause] now Walker not given a moment to think about it foden Walker the touch line but what will be an inter throw mkhitaryan barel choru on the ball [Applause] Bon federo dearco Franchesco ater Yan Orel bisek it's with a chabby deanco now what could inter do from this position well it came to nothing in the end Walker Walker for Oden this could Square the game and that's exactly what has transpired now that could be a massive turning point and momentum is with them well I have to say he's done really well here he's in the right place and then a decent finish that's a good [Applause] goal well another equalizer what a topsy tury game this has been stones and greish and City being afforded too much room John Stones can they Forge ahead couldn't quite hang on surely oh tremendous block not the best Challenge free [Applause] kick and a substitution in the [Applause] [Music] offing toam oh that's an interesting pass high quality [Applause] defending Ken Nathan a here City pushing forward with options [Applause] available unable to keep the ball that time opportunity to take the lead looked like a and goal but that's a great challenge Barella dearco and play halted free kick given well he's admonished him rather than cautioning him well spot on from the referee he's made it clear another foul and he will get a yellow card well we have 20 minutes left in this game game now who can he play it to well disappointing end to the move the referee has decided to give the free kick decision the way of city and unable to pick out a teammate and that'll be a throw Running With The Ball confidently but it Fizzles out thanks to that piece of defending mikitarian the crowd encouraging him to take it on alesandro Baston [Applause] it's got to be still a chance but no it's not going to be an opportunity because the flag is [Music] [Applause] up a the ball with rodri on high marks for that that pass greish it is Advantage Manchester City here that's how to beat your opponent PS it back well there's an example of how to press high up real chance oh tremendous reflex action there from The Keeper well he didn't have long to react did he but that's a top class save I have to say and a short Corner let's see de BR well over the top it goes he didn't miss by an awful lot well not giving him any Breathing Room well you can hear the inter fans just driving their team forward are we going to have a dramatic finish here oh good Vision oh a goal and is that going to be the one that wins it for them there's every chance and the fans are laughing this [Music] up but he wasn't going to waste this chance One V one against the keeper and he slots it away with great confidence that's a good finish [Applause] what a big moment in the dying Embers will it prove decisive here V well here's the big question with the minutes ticking away can inter get over the line Stuart what have you made of their performance today well it's been great entertainment and we've seen some excellent attacking football but overall I think they've been the better team they've certainly had the greater Cutting Edge now they just need to see this out in the final few moments 5 minutes remaining and one thing is certain no one is leaving because it's still close barela and he's made Headway oh great goalkeeping well that's a top quality save great anticipation playing it in well he failed to get it away properly mikitarian oh that's a really good run barela now with [Applause] tan will he shoot the fans hope so Martinez and made sure the pass wasn't Troublesome and there the move will end because it's offside close [Applause] though Martinez a foul it most certainly was free kick given [Applause] well taking into account all the stoppages three minutes to be added on tan mikitarian and the B getting in the way [Applause] [Applause] greish Manchester City have work to do but is it going to happen for them pretty comfortable piece of Defending well full time it is here and a well earned victory for inter to get their campaign going yeah that's a good win and a vital three points another win next time out and they'll be in a great position that a hugely influential role played by Laro Martinez Sensational performance from him on all levels Stuart what did you make of what you saw well he should be pleased with himself today because he performed really well he scored a good goal and they won the game an excellent day all around
