How City beat the Southampto­n press

-

SOUTHAMPTO­N have become one of the best pressing sides in the Premier League under Ralph Hasenhuttl but Man City’s key to bypassing the Saints press was goalkeeper Ederson. Southampto­n were in a good position in the build-up to City’s winning goal. They had seven players inside the City half, organised and in a good shape. In one pass, Ederson cleared them all and exploited the space behind the Saints defence.
