Premier League Goal Summary: Manchester City vs Stoke City
Following their win over http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429, Manchester City went on to host Stoke City at the Etihad Stadium. Despite Stoke seemingly being in decent form, they couldn’t prove to be a match for City, who went on to win by three goals to nil.
Prior to the game, it was believed that Stoke might be able to get a point of the league leaders, only because of the fact that they played a very physical style of football, which had the possibility of unlocking the City defences.
City scored their first goal of the game in the 29th minute and it was http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-c33030 Aguero who went on to find the back of the net.
Stoke appealed for an offside, however, the linesman went on to wave play on. Silva managed to play a pass for Yaya Toure, who then crossed the ball to Kompany. The City captain got his effort on target, but saw the keeper keep the ball out. With the ball landing into the path of Aguero, the striker simply had to tap the rebound into the net, as he got his name on the score sheet.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Adam-Johnson-c3537, who had been given a rare start for City in the Premier League, went on to double City’s lead as he scored a brilliant goal from some thirty yards out.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 international received the ball and then went on to shift it to his stronger foot, he then lined himself up before unleashing an unstoppable shot from distance. Despite Sorensen having plenty of time to see the ball, he couldn’t keep the ball out of the net.
