Typically there's criticism of Manchester Metropolis's sterile passing, their countless circulation of the ball in low-risk conditions, maintaining the ball tiki-taka fashion with out ever transferring it ahead or difficult the defence.
Effectively, how was that opening aim to disprove these notions of boring, boring Metropolis?
Bournemouth had a excessive defensive position and that was ripe for exploiting with a direct, vertical assault. The chip from Nico, the header from Cherki and Haaland was one-on-one from 40 yards out or so.

Bournemouth won’t ever deviate away from Andoni Iraola's most well-liked fashion. On the one hand, that ought to be recommended — on the opposite, it's a little bit bit silly.
For them to return to the Etihad, having misplaced on all eight earlier Premier League visits right here, enjoying their excessive line in opposition to Haaland feels fairly nonsensical. The Norwegian has, unsurprisingly, discovered heaps of pleasure in behind their backline and has made them pay.
If Bournemouth play equally within the second half, it’s onerous to think about Haaland will probably be leaving right here with out the match ball.

It has been the identical combo for each Manchester Metropolis objectives: Cherki supplying the help for a Haaland aim.
I speculated earlier than the sport whether or not Cherki could be the person to unlock the Metropolis assault after attempting loads of mixtures behind the runaway Golden Boot chief.
The Frenchman's two-footed technical capacity and fast, constructive passes ahead has meant Metropolis have seemed actually brilliant in assault.
Cherki doesn't have the tempo or one-on-one dribbling of Doku or Savinho, the ending of Marmoush or the urgent of Foden however he doesn't half knit issues collectively easily and gracefully.
