Manchester City vs Club America Preview
Club America looks to bounce back from a 2-1 loss to Chelsea when facing Manchester City on Wednesday in Houston. Manchester City is just getting started with exhibition play.
“It is to restart the engine in our work. We still have absences here and players who could not travel,” Manchester City head coach Pep Guardiola said via ManCity.com’s Rob Pollard. “Step by step, we will feel better. We are a little away from our best.”
Manchester City, the defending Premier League champions has new talent on board with Erling Haaland, Kalvin Phillips and Julian Alvarez. Phillips, an English soccer star came over from Leeds United. Haaland, a Norwegian soccer star, came over from German soccer club Borussia Dortmund.
“You can never say how it will work out, he has to adapt to live in a new country. But he is quite familiar with English football,” Alf-Ingve Berntsen, Haaland’s youth soccer coach said via the Manchester Evening News’ Simon Bajkowski, “and I don’t see that he won’t succeed because he scores nearly a goal every match at all teams — Norway, Salzburg, Dortmund, in the Champions League, in Bundesliga, in the national team. It is not just against the ‘poorer teams’ either — he scored two against PSG.”
As for Alvarez, the Argentinian soccer star, signed with Manchester City in January but remained on loan with River Plate, where he played from 2018 to now. His loan to River Plate ended in early July when the team’s season ended.
“I am incredibly happy and I feel ready to play for City,” Alvarez said via 90 MIN’s Matt O’Connor-Simpson. “This is, without doubt, one of the biggest teams in world football. You only have to see what this team has won in the last decade to understand the quality of the setup.”
“I feel confident I can flourish here,” Alvarez added. “The style of play Pep encourages is exciting and I can’t wait to be a part of it. City has an amazing recent history of Argentinian players and I want to put my stamp on the Club in the same way Sergio Aguero, Pablo Zabaleta and Carlos Tevez did.”
“I am so thankful for everything River Plate did for me and I want to thank the fans, staff and players for their support. But I am now 100% focused on Manchester City,” Alvarez concluded. “I want to give my best to this club, help my teammates and contribute to Manchester City’s success.”
Club America is part of the top-tier Mexican professional league Liga MX and has a highly-successful history with 13 league titles. Club America has a 1-1-1 record in league play for this season thus far, which included a 1-0 win over Toluca on July 13.
