In a dramatic turn of events at dawn on Wednesday (12), the UEFA Europa League Group G.
Manchester City
, a usually invincible team, in order to take on the Premier League's marquee match on Sunday night (16) against
Liverpool (England)
Conserving their strength, the team leader Gordiona boldly adjusted the starting lineup. The move included resting scorer Ainin Xalant, and as a result, the team's forward line was greatly reduced in strength, and even the penalty shootout could not break through, and the away match with the Danish team Copenhagen was a 0-0 draw, and the momentum of three consecutive victories came to an abrupt end, and the original 1.07 odds for an away win instantly collapsed, which is really saddening.

Two of the team's in-form attackers, Ainin Chalant and Phil Cotton, were on the bench, with Zulian Ivaris, Kialisch and Males in the forward line, while Males was the main culprit in the team's loss of points.
Just 11 minutes into the game.

Midfielder Lodi Kasjandi scored from long range, however, after a VAR replay, the referee ruled that Malles had committed a handball foul in the first place and the goal was disallowed.
By the 25th minute, Copenhagen defender Paulissen was also guilty of a handball in the penalty area and was whistled for a 12-yard penalty, which was taken by Males, but was parried away by goalkeeper Gabala, so that Males was almost "on his own" to make the game a success.
Manchester City
Lost two scoring chances.

The other reason for the loss of points was that Saji Ogomes, who was playing as the regular left tackle, was sent off in the 30th minute, which led to the team playing most of the game with one man less. Gordiona was forced to make a substitution in the 33rd minute, replacing Malles with center midfielder Rubin Dyas, which reduced the team's attacking power by another point.
Nonetheless, Godiona seemed satisfied with the draw and left Aynin Chalant out for the entire game, giving him a full rest for the upcoming Premier League road challenge.
