New star! Nico O'Reilly sets an intriguing record for Man City

Manchester City solidified their position in the race for a top-5 spot by defeating Everton in the 33rd round of the English Premier League.

From the first minutes of the match, it was clear that it wouldn't be an easy task for the "Citizens." Guardiola's squad struggled, managing to score only in the 84th minute. The Spanish coach could finally breathe a sigh of relief in stoppage time when Kovacic sealed the final score at 2-0 in favor of Man City.

Notably, the first goal of the match was scored by Nico O'Reilly, whom Pep utilizes as a left-back. The statistical portal Opta Joe reports that the talented footballer became the fourth-youngest player to score in two consecutive Premier League matches for Manchester City, and the youngest since Phil Foden in June 2020.

Additionally, after this round, the "Citizens" will definitely remain in the Champions League zone. If Nottingham fails to defeat Tottenham, Man City will even climb to fourth place. Remember, the top five teams in the Premier League will qualify for the Champions League.
