The Paraguayan scored a good goal and could have added another.

The attacker caused City’s Joao Cancelo all sorts of problems with his penetrative runs.

The Newcastle star has scored one goal in three Premier League appearances so far this season.

Almiron made 19 starts and 11 substitute appearances in the league last season.

The attacking midfielder scored one goal in those matches.

Against City today, Almiron took three shots, played one key pass, had a pass accuracy of 77.8%, took 26 touches, and put in one cross.
