For the 16th consecutive time, Newcastle fell at Etihad! Unlike some previous occasions when the crowd could have enjoyed at least some uncertainty, this time, “it was over even before it began!”The Magpies held out for 19 minutes and then disappeared from the pitch, leaving the main stage to one man – Omar Marsmoush. The Egyptian bagged a hat-trick in only 14 minutes – between the 19th and 33rd – and paved the way for the Cityzens’ victory.In a dull second half, James McAtee’s 84th-minute goal represented the home team’s final touch, confirming a crushing 4-0 win.Omar Marmoush has 𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐝. pic.twitter.com/r1w80b156t— B/R Football (@brfootball) February 15, 2025 Following a pretty peaceful game opening, the Cityzens, or better said, their major reinforcement, Omar Marmoush, put in a show and organized the home team’s blitzkrieg, netting twice in just five minutes!Man City win a court case against Premier LeagueThe Egyptian’s maiden goal in the light blue jersey came in the 19th minute when Ederson sent a perfect long ball over Kieran Trippier, and Marmoush simply lobbed it over Martin Dubravka. In the 25th, Pep Guardiola’s men exploited the additional space Newcastle’s defence gave them, as Ilkay Gundogan found Marmoush, who put the ball in the bottom right corner of the Magpies’ goal from the edge of the box, making it 2-0.GOAL | Man City 1-0 Newcastle(Omar Marmoush) pic.twitter.com/sVxZCivDTh— MCFC BLUE FOREVER (@KDB17MCBM) February 15, 2025 pic.twitter.com/lsh723ZWxO— Follow new account: @CenterOfGoals (@AlainaParn12301) February 15, 2025 City’s dominance continued with Savinho’s wasted chance, while Newcastle’s defender Dan Burn was centimetres away from scoring an own goal. Still, this game belonged to only one man – Omar Marmoush! It took the 26-year-old only 14 minutes to complete a hat-trick and destroy the visitors by himself, proving that he’d be of utmost importance to the Cityzens in the upcoming Premier League and UCL battles.🚨🏴 GOAL | Manchester City 3-0 Newcastle | Omar MarmoushOMAR MARMOUSH SCORES A HAT-TRICK IN 32 MINUTES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!pic.twitter.com/ppr5FMlHaX— Tekkers Foot (@tekkersfoot) February 15, 2025 A double sub already at the break clearly showed how disappointed Eddie Howe was with his crew’s performance but neither Valentino Livramento nor the young Lewis Miley could save Newcastle from the inevitable defeat. Truth be told, Man City slightly “pulled the plug,” as they had already secured the new three points. Yet, regardless, the home team managed to bag another goal through their gem James McAtee, who made it 4-0 in the 84th minute.🚨🏴 GOAL | Manchester City 4-0 Newcastle | James McAteeJAMES MCATEE MAKES IT FOUR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!pic.twitter.com/rOHZCARUHR— Tekkers Foot (@tekkersfoot) February 15, 2025 The triumph kept the Cityzens in the fourth Premier League spot, so they can now turn to preparations for the return leg of the UCL playoffs clash against Real Madrid.
