The stats that prove Man City know goals will start flowing again
straight to your inboxQualification into the knockout phase of the Champions League couldn’t have gone smoother for Manchester City after their 1-0 win away vs Olympiacos saw them clinch four wins from their opening four group stage matches.Although the victory came by way of slender one-goal margin, it doesn’t necessarily reflect the performance of Pep Guardiola’s side on the night.They dominated the ball and created 21 shots, 11 of which hit the target. For comparison, their Greek hosts spent large periods penned in their own half and finished that match having attempted just two shots, neither of which hit Ederson’s goal.Additionally, according to Wyscout, City accumulated an Expected Goal (xG) total of 2.4, which is high.
