With Haaland and Malmush scoring goals, Manchester City tied Brighton 2-2 in the 29th round of the Premier League. Malmush said he would continue to do his best on the field with the team and hoped that the team would qualify for the Champions League next season.
In the 9th minute, Malmush received a pass from Haaland and was knocked down by Brighton defender Adam Webster when he attacked again. The referee awarded Manchester City a penalty kick. Subsequently, Haaland took the penalty kick and scored, helping Manchester City to open the scoring with a 1-0 lead.
In the 21st minute, Estupiñan took a free kick and shot directly, and the ball hit the post and bounced into the net, helping Brighton to tie the score 1-1. In the 39th minute, Gundogan made a diagonal pass, and Malmush followed up with a long shot from the top of the penalty area, and the ball hit the post and bounced into the goal, helping Manchester City take the lead again with 2-1.
In the 48th minute of the second half, Hinshelwood received a pass from Adam Webster and turned to shoot. The ball hit Manchester City defender Husanov and flew into the net, allowing Brighton to tie the score 2-2. In the end, Manchester City was tied 2-2 by Brighton at the Etihad Stadium.
The 26-year-old Malmush has scored four goals in the Premier League since joining Manchester City, including a hat-trick in the previous game against Newcastle, and his performance is outstanding.
In an interview, Marmus said, "The players and staff here are great. I just want to learn as much as possible, listen to the coach's instructions, and implement his requirements. I scored a goal in this game, but I didn't get 3 points in the end, so it doesn't feel the best, but we will keep working hard."
After achieving 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses in the last 5 rounds, Manchester City currently ranks 5th in the standings with 48 points and still faces tough competition and challenges in its fight for the Champions League qualification.
Gundogan: It's important to stay calm
Malmush said, "This is a challenge, but we will do our best. We will try our best and give 100% every time we step on the court, hoping to eventually win a Champions League spot. We also need to show more strength, be more confident in possession of the ball and control the rhythm of the game, and play in Manchester City's usual style."
On the other hand, when reviewing the results against Brighton, Manchester City midfielder Gundogan said, "It is important to stay calm. Of course, mistakes are inevitable in this level of competition. The opponent is very strong and every game is difficult. When we want to make up after losing the ball, we should not think too much."
"We have to expect the highest from each other every day and I think we had a great week in practice. We hope to carry that energy and motivation from practice into the game, but sometimes that's not enough."
Gundogan also said, "I am personally very disappointed. After taking the lead twice, the team's overall performance was good, but in the end we failed to get 3 points. This is really frustrating."
