In the dawn of Saturday (7), the UEFA Europa League event witnessed a battle for national glory between Manchester City's duo of stars, Chivun Dibny and Ainin Chalainte. The wheels of fate turned between them with very different trajectories. Chieuendibny helped Belgium leapfrog Group A2 with another 3-1 win over Israel at home, while Ayninshalant came up empty-handed in a tightly contested affair that saw the Norwegian team's road trip go cold, with the match against Kazakhstan ending in a 0-0 draw.
Belgium had the momentum and only 21 minutes into the game, two City players worked in tandem, with Shelly Medjugorje skillfully delivering a legendary one-two for Chiyundibuni. A Kastenyi oops gave Israel an equalizer for a while, but Telivins switched sides and quickly countered to put them back in front. Obindabo reached a 12-yard penalty and Chiyundibuni again put the ball into the net to seal the 3-1 win.
It is worth noting that Obinda, who not only won penalties but also contributed an assist in the match, was courageous enough to almost replace unselected goalscorer Lukaku.
And in Group B3, Einincharant didn't help City as much as Chivun Dibny did, who was a big underperformer. Despite the Norwegian team's dominance of the field, with a whopping 19 shots on goal, only two were on target. Einincharlant did not touch the goal for the whole match, and the match against Kazakhstan ended in a 0-0 score, even lower than the expected 1.26 times the heat of the visiting team.
