De Bruyne makes his mark, Man City easily wins Copenhagen

Copenhagen 1-3 Man City

Despite playing away from home, Man City easily dominated Copenhagen. The defending champions dominated and won thanks to the brilliance of Kevin De Bruyne, who was in great form after recovering from injury.

Copenhagen's defense only kept a clean sheet in the first 10 minutes of the match. Phil Foden assisted De Bruyne to score from a tight angle to open the scoring.

Goalkeeper Ederson Moraes' mistake added a little more difficulty for Man City. Magnus Mattsson took advantage of the opportunity to take a beautiful long-range shot to equalize in the 34th minute. It was Copenhagen's first shot and only shot on target in the match.

Kevin De Bruyne scored and had 2 assists for his teammates to score.

However, Man City still ended the first half in the lead. De Bruyne created an opportunity for Bernardo Silva to finish delicately right in front of the opposing goalkeeper, putting the English team ahead.

In the second half, Man City's ball control rate increased to over 80%. They launched 15 shots but only 3 were on target. The one-goal gap was very fragile but Copenhagen had absolutely no chance to equalize.

In the second half, Foden extended the gap for Man City. The passer in this situation was again Kevin De Bruyne. The defending champions won 3-1 in the first leg. This is a big advantage for Man City before the rematch at home in March.
