"Manchester City really are a disaster's bottle opener! I remember they did something similar last season, didn't they?"
"So brutal! Manchester City's players have no heart, they don't know what kindness is!"
"Heartless! Manchester City have failed in terms of sportsmanship!"
Eight to zero!
Can you believe it?
A scoreline that ordinary teams might not see once in decades, Manchester City manages to produce every season.
That so-called notoriety is slowly built up just like this.
And the game had only just passed seventy minutes.
The seventy-ninth minute.
Maicon and Ribery were pairing up on the wing again.
They had completely turned the right flank into the 'Maicon-Ribery Corridor', and although the name didn't sound very nice, it was brutally effective in practice.
Receiving the ball, Maicon played a through pass.
Ribery, after a series of rhythmic changes in pace, created space for himself and made a tight-angled shot on goal.
