Summary of Manchester City's 0:3 win over Wolves (Sport 1)
Manchester City took less than 20 minutes today (Saturday) to decide the away game against Wolves.
In the 16th minute the score was already 0:2 and although there was still a lot of time to play, it is doubtful if anyone believed that the host would be able to come back.
When referee Anthony Taylor blew his whistle for the end, the scoreboard read 0:3 and the champion rose to the top at least temporarily.
City are now on 22 consecutive league away games without defeat (16 wins, 6 draws) and the last time they conceded away from home was in August 2021 against Tottenham.
The next time Pep Guardiola and his players play away in the Premier League will be at Anfield against Liverpool.
Will there be a stop to the longest streak in the history of content?
He was trusted, and rewarded the coach.

Erling Holland scored City's second, his 11th Premier League goal in just 7 games.
Since leaving Red Bull Salzburg for Borussia Dortmund in January 2020, he has scored 100 goals in 99 games.
But the Norwegian provided a lukewarm performance in his terms and the one who stood out was mainly Jack Grealish.
The English midfielder was criticized after 58 bad minutes against Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League and thanked Pep Guardiola at the end for giving him the team shirt "despite my ability in the middle of the week".
In the "Manchester Evening News" they gave the midfielder a score of 8 and justified it by the good performance and the incessant headaches he caused to the host defense.
In the "Daily Mail" they gave Grealish a 9 and praised his performance "under great pressure".
Grealish scored his first goal of the season after just 55 seconds and said at the end: "I enjoyed that goal, it took too long to come. I need more goals and more assists, that's the only thing I do when people keep talking about the amount they bought me for. But if you look at In my career, you can see that I had several goals and assists in the Premier League."
A goal and a mediocre game, we're already used to it.

Former footballer and current commentator Rio Ferdinand said: "Grealish answered the criticism in a great way, with a good performance and a goal. Everything is looking positive at Manchester City and at the moment the title fight looks like a one-headed race. City will only go and get stronger, Holland's arrival has only made all the players around him to raise their level."
