Marmoush Returns with a Bang: City Downs Wolves 2-0
24 Jan
Summary
- Omar Marmoush scored the opening goal in his return to City's starting lineup.
- Antoine Semenyo netted his third goal in four appearances for City.
- Defender Marc Guéhi made an impressive City debut, securing a clean sheet.
Omar Marmoush expressed great satisfaction following his return to City's starting lineup, scoring a crucial goal that contributed to a 2-0 Premier League triumph against Wolves on January 24, 2026. Marmoush, who recently finished fourth with Egypt in the Africa Cup of Nations, was recalled to the league starting team for the first time since August.
He justified the manager's confidence by finding the net in the sixth minute, assisted by a precise cross from Matheus Nunes, and later struck the post. Antoine Semenyo further extended City's lead before halftime, marking his third goal in his last four appearances for the club.
The victory was City's first league win of 2026 and featured an impressive debut from defender Marc Guéhi, who performed solidly at the back. This defensive effort ensured a clean sheet for the team, their first since a New Year's Day draw with Sunderland.
