In the first round of the new "Premier" league season, a central match took place.

"Manchester City" defeated the local team "Chelsea" 2:0 in London.

In the 18th minute, Erling Haaland, who handled the ball excellently, put the "city dwellers" ahead.

At the end of the first half, the "Chelsea" team's play reminded of last season. They were active and had good positions to create dangerous chances, but they failed to score.

The "Aristocrats" tried to test their luck even after the break. However, even the introduction of newcomer Neto did not help.

The winner of the match was determined by Mateo Kovačić. The Croatian scored a beautiful goal against his former team in the 84th minute.
