Man City's 133 billion DF revealed why it didn't take PK after getting a hat-trick opportunity!
Manchester City's main defender Josuko Gvardiol explained why he did not take a penalty kick even though he had a chance for a hat-trick.
"Manchester City's Gvardiol revealed the reason for refusing the penalty despite scoring two goals against Fulham."
Manchester City defeated Fulham 4-0 in the 36th round of the English Premier League EPL in the 2023/24 season held at Craven Cottage in London on the 11th. Manchester City overtook Arsenal for the lead with 26 wins, seven draws and three losses 85 points in the league.
Gvardiol, a defender, scored twice in the match. Gvardiol showed his scoring instinct from the first half. After exchanging 2-1 passes with Kevin De Bruyne in the 13th minute, Gvardiol finished with a right footed shot inside the penalty box.
Gvardiol's performance did not end there. Bernardu Silva crossed with his left foot from the right side in the 36th minute of the second half. Gvardiol, who was penetrating into the penalty box, put his right foot on it and hit the net. A video review of the offside was conducted in the scoring scene, but the judgment was not reversed.
Manchester City got a penalty kick in the seventh minute of second-half stoppage time. Gvardiol, who had already scored two goals, could have kicked for a hat-trick, but he stepped back. The kicker was Julián Alvarez. Alvarez calmly scored the penalty. Gvardiol could have been the first defender to score three goals since the start of the EPL, but he conceded to Alvarez.
After the match, Gvardiol said about it. "Of course I said I wanted to kick it, but we knew who the kicker was. It was Alvarez after all and I'm glad he scored a goal," Gvardiol said on TNT Sports.
Gvardiol, who was in the spotlight for his outstanding performance at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, joined Manchester City last summer. Manchester City has invested 90 million euros W133 billion in the recruitment of Gvardiol. Gvardiol has become a regular player for Manchester City with five goals and two assists in 39 official matches. 토토사이트 순위
