Kapitel 148: Test of grit; against Manchester City! [2]

Again, it was Phil Foden and again, it was another silky-smooth dribble.

Having caused the first goal through his mazy dribbling, Phil Foden went on another of those mazy runs again.

Palhinha tried to hold the English forward down but with his flair, Foden left him for dead, drifting into the Fulham 18-yard box like he was surfing a wave.

Calvin Bassey slid in for an aggressive sliding tackle only for this player to flick the ball above him, jumping after it and as Diop blocked with his leg, Foden unleashed a whipped shot, shooting the ball in between the legs of this defender.

The ball rushed towards the bottom left corner like a missile. This time, Leno dived, almost hitting his head against the post but it was not enough.

Agonizingly, the ball snuck past.

1-2.

Charging towards the corner flag, Foden jumped and pumped a fist in celebration as his teammates swarmed him.
