March 27, the 30th round of the English Premier League.
Manchester City faced Blackburn.
This time Manchester City opted for a semi-first team lineup.
After all, they played Roma less than three days ago, not only fielding their main players but also suffering Essien's injury.
If things go as expected, Blackburn might be relegated this season.
Despite their display of a will to win on the pitch.
The gap in strength between the two sides meant they had no choice but to surrender.
Two-nil.
Manchester City didn't press Blackburn while controlling the situation,
rather, they were controlling the tempo.
There's a saying: don't chase a desperate enemy.
Manchester City truly can't afford any more injuries now.
And if they turn around, they have another tough match to play.
April 1, the FA Cup semi-final.
Manchester City vs Liverpool.
Everybody knows Liverpool, right?
The team that ended Manchester City's 22-match winning streak.
Liverpool: That would be us!
