Omar Marmoush's Spectacular Hat-Trick Leads Manchester City to Victory

2025-03-02

Omar Marmoush announced himself in spectacular fashion to Manchester City fans with a rapid first-half hat-trick in a dominant 4-0 victory over Newcastle United at the Etihad Stadium. The Egyptian forward, who joined City in the January transfer window from Eintracht Frankfurt, needed just 14 minutes to secure his treble, marking his first goals for the club in emphatic style. His performance was pivotal in City’s return to form, as they moved back into the Premier League’s top four.

Marmoush opened his account with a delicate lob over Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Dubravka, assisted by a pinpoint 50-yard pass from Ederson, who set a new Premier League record for goalkeeper assists. His second goal came after a swift combination down the left, with Marmoush shifting the ball onto his right foot and firing into the bottom corner. The hat-trick was completed when Savinho’s cross from the right found Marmoush, who calmly slotted home from 12 yards.

Pep Guardiola praised Marmoush’s impact, highlighting his dynamism and ability to adapt quickly to City’s style of play. The manager also commended the contributions of new signings Nico González and Abdukodir Khusanov, who provided stability in midfield and defence. Erling Haaland, captaining the side for the first time, played a supporting role, setting up James McAtee for City’s fourth goal late in the game.

The victory was a statement of intent from City, who have struggled for consistency this season. Marmoush’s performance not only alleviated some of the goalscoring burden on Haaland but also showcased the depth of quality in Guardiola’s squad. With crucial fixtures ahead, including a Champions League clash against Real Madrid, City will hope this result marks the beginning of a strong finish to the campaign.
