Esteemed Kompany host Steve Mcinerney breaks down Manchester City’s opening-day win over Burnley.
The treble winners eased past Vincent Kompany’s side 3-nil at Turf Moor. It was the perfect beginning to the champions season as they aim for a fourth consecutive Premier League title.
Erling Haaland opened his account for the season with an opening-day brace. The question of if Haaland would fire on the opening day was answered in only 3 minutes. He would add another in the 35th minute to send a warning to the rest of the Premier League.
The only sour note for the champions was an injury to Kevin De Bruyne. City’s midfield maestro limped over after 20 minutes. City boss Pep Guardiola confirmed that De Bruyne had reinjured the hamstring he injured during last season’s Champions League final.
As Manchester City now prepare for the European Super Cup against Sevilla, enjoy the Esteemed Kompany host’s breakdown of the opening day win.
