Manchester City vs. Borussia Dortmund analysis: City set up for failure AGAIN?! | ESPN FC

Manchester City gets the job done, but it was a less-than-convincing performance from Pep Guardiola’s side against Erling Haaland and Borussia Dortmund. ESPN FC’s Nedum Onuoha and Jan Aage Fjortoft agree City will be disappointed they didn’t score more, but will be happy to get the win in the end. Onuoha believes the second leg will be higher scoring, while Fjortoft wonders if Man City will rue the away goal scored by Marco Reus.

My favorite moment was when halaand sent the apparently premier league's best defender back to benfica 🤣🤣🤣
Only on ESPN can a team win yet still be slagged off and said they set up wrong 🤦🏻♂️
Dan, pep said dortmund are a classic CL team . They have the best goal scorer in the world and some of the best young talents. why do you expect man city to destroy them?
To compare City with Bayern is so unreal lol. The guy say, heeyyy But City never won a first leg so they are happy, they are favourites with Bayern….. What?!!!!!! So You are compairing a team who should be happy for winning one game in quarter finals with Bayern? really with a UCL multi champion who, by the way, are the actual champions?
Man, if this game would be played against Bayern, City would be destroyed. Even Machester City have the entire squad available with his coach, Dortmund have starters injured and also no coach, and they play like this? pffff…
Dortmund deserved a score draw tbh. They were the better team. City were just clinical. The referee was a joke. The way he looked at the screen for city's penalty , u knew a disaster was forthcoming.
City is too good to play set up how they usually play. I never understood why pep changes this tactics and formation. Either lose by 1 or win by 1
1-0 BVB 2nd leg..you heard it here first
Nedum Onuoha fits in so well on this show!
Haaland has been involved in EVERY goal Dortmund have scored in the knockout stages.
4 goals 2 assists in 3 games (2 g/a on average per game)
I hope it's not another away goal trap 😭
Come on city …!!!!!!!
Barca and Man city always plays with 12th man 😠
Dan probably never even watched the game…Just a load of stupid questions
Pep Guardiola should know better. You won’t win the champions league rotating players. This isn’t the EPL
Get nathan of this show if it’s about city
Dortmund going through their worst form in a long time……..still the best of England struggling against them!…….UCL IS TOUGH!
It should have been 2-2, the referee was clearly helping City. Overrated Premier league teams.
Dortmund where robbed, a very good goal not given by a poor referee… City won't be winning this or any other Cup. And the cheats in their side rolling around screaming and holding their faces ought to be sent off.
We all know Dellingham should have gotten this goal and it would have been maybe 2-1 for Dortmund because psychological it would have been a boost, however I guess a 2-2 would have been more realistic.
Like pep said te most important is win the game simple. So make you a favourite team means that you need to score 5 goals. No way. Is two games so let's see the next Wednesday
Am a BVB09 fan and i think should've deserved a PANELTY + Mancity played way better , the numbers don't lie
lets remember Mancity did not use the full squad
bvb had a perfectly good goal disallowed, they shud have 2 away goals n that wud put them in the driver's seat in this tie, not sure how nobody has brought that up while reviewing the game 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Thanks to Foden miss, City maybe out of the UCL in the second leg.
Can’t stand this host, he’s a complete knob
I like the way Dan normally fuel these ESPN discussions. Simple, city are still virgins when it comes to UCL & don't get surprised if actually they bottle it again this season at Dortmund. It can be quickly over for them & won't be the 1st tym🤣🤣
About time something went our way, to all the sookssss out there den patai kai na gamithitai
Prem is overrated
God the prem is so biased why do we overate our teams so much and under-ate our teams so much. The prem is such a powerful media beast that we just are so unaware of the rest of Europe.
It was City v BVB not City v a league 1 team… why do people have to find a problem with City every single time?
Champions league is a different ball game. It is for the champions for a reason so there's never an easy game here. Kudos city💙
Nedum is becoming my favourite pundit on the show, very well spoken and he knows his football, he absolutely destroys Dan lol
If the ref made the same mistake with man city all the poundits would be raging about how the ref cost man city the game but since it is in the favour of man city they just let it slide and don't even mention it.
City will never win a champions league Bayern will be waiting
Dan thomas hasn’t got a clue of what his talking about.. english people dont really learn with their mistakes by underestimating the opposition all the time.. if it wasn’t for the ref today ( and wasn’t even mention btw) we’d be talking about a completly different result here.. BVB will win the tie..
Premier League 😂😂😂😂😂
I genuinely don't have a clue how any so called sports analysis professionals can put a tagline of "City set up for failure again?!" After a 2-1 win in a champions league quarter final. You people are fools, treating Dortmund like they're a non-league team. Where's your respect ESPN? You need to let your guests take over as hosts. Dan doesn't have a clue what he's talking about at all. What an absolute fool. Talking like we're out 😂
get rekt dortmund ;D
Lol why does ESPN exist? Such amateur punditry from also of rejects
No complain against ref wow this is amazing score should be 2-2 dats fair .. but ref have always soft corner for pep and his dramatic players coz thanks to var otherwise rodri drama was given penalty by ref
Respect your opponent. By predicting and expecting City to win quadruple you disrespect all other teams.. Are you hosts in this case should be completely neutral or fans of City?
Giving Dortmund some Respect…
What a bad review…
If they have so much Trouble with Dortmund, if Bayern get into the Semifinal they will bury City.
Maybe they not doing well in the league but they changed manager dortmund has some top young players which want to test them selfs with one of the best teams. I just don't get this moron being disrespectful it's football quater finals west brom beat Chelsea 5.2 any thing can happen the way this idiot is speaking city should have won 4or5 goals difference seems like he just started watching football
"ciTy iS a SuPErioR sIDe tHeY shOUlD haVe wOn"
This dude talks like someone who watches skill compilations instead of actually watching football games.
1-0 to Dortmund and City will go home again.
To return next season as favourites and lose again in knockouts……
English pundits always keep making the mistake of underestimating teams from other leagues and over-estimating English teams. I'm excited to see what happens in the 2nd leg now.
Bellingham is class. A motor in the midfield and technically gifted. Saw a few of his games and he was impressive for a 17 year old. England‘s future looks bright. I‘d love to have him in the German national team 😄
Okey,I didn't like the fact that we conceded,but on the other hand I feel our away record this season is good,fingers crossed 🤞🏾
