Manchester City claimed a hard-fought 3-2 win over Fulham at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday afternoon, with Mateo Kovacic, standing in for the injured Rodri, scoring twice and Jeremy Doku nabbing the winner
Pep Guardiola was pleased to see Mateo Kovacic take a leaf out of Rodri’s book after his double spearheaded Manchester City's comeback victory over Fulham.
The two goals is because they cannot defend that position. The first goal was brilliant and the second one as well. Kova was really important but now the opponents know they cannot leave him alone, otherwise he can score a goal.” City lived dangerously as Fulham’s Adama Traore missed a host of chances but Jeremy Doku made victory secure with a stunning strike before a late Rodrigo Muniz consolation.
