The EPL side of our Sports Blog

Welcome to our sports blog!

The sport I'll be covering is the English Premier League. My aim is to identify and discuss the key events that are occurring amongst all teams, players and managers as they progress through the season. Each week match/matches among other transfer news will be posted in regards to the previous week of competition.

As a little introduction, I'd like to dedicate my first post to the Manchester United Vs Manchester City derby. I believe those who follow this blog will have already watched or heard news upon the respected game. As such I will comment directly on crucial points of the match (SPOILER ALERT).

The rivalry between the two massive clubs with a newly appointed managers of heavyweights Mourinho and Guardiola, formed this fixture to be the match of the week. While Zlatan Ibrahimovic was able to open the scoring for United (42'') just before half-time, Paul Pogba seemed to be distant and not apart of the game causing anger amongst fans. However all eyes were on the City squad who progressively took the match in their grasp having started with a bang with goals from Kevin de Bruyne (15'') and Kelechi Iheanacho (36'). Guardiola was able to walk away with a win and cement his club's position at the top of the leaderboard.
