It definitely looks like a failed season for Manchester City, Pep Guardiola seems to have no idea how to pull it off.

One of the best teams in Europe suffered its seventh defeat in the last 11 games - against Juventus in Turin (2:0), a team that also had no roses.

In the 53rd minute, Dušan Vlahović put the ball into the net of the champions of England for a total eruption at "Juventus Arena", which literally exploded with joy when in the 75th minute McKenney, assisted by Vee, knocked the ball into the net with a volley.

Vasilije Adžić remained on the bench, and with his teammates he celebrated the biggest victory of Juventus in recent times, the biggest in the era of Tiago Mota.

Juventus is 14th, Manchester City 22nd in the table.

Crvena zvezda earned a point in another duel between former European champions at the San Siro, luck decided, perhaps also the quality of more of the Milanese - 2:1, with a goal by the Englishman Abraham three minutes before the end.

Decimated Milan, further weakened by the exits of Morata and Loftus-Čik in the first half, buckled under the onslaught of the Belgrade team in the continuation, although they led from the end of the first half with a beautiful goal by Rafael Lea.

However, when in the 67th minute Radonjić hit the corner with a precise shot from the edge of the penalty area, it seemed that the guests had a point in their pocket - that they could go on to win.

Milan stepped up a bit, they weren't attacking in waves, but three minutes before the end, Abraham pushed a deflection off the crossbar into the net, with a potential foul that was checked in the VAR room.
