Manchester City lead by more than an hour

The Citizens started the game well, Alvarez scored in the 16th minute, Cancelo conceded a penalty and was sent off ten minutes later, and Pereira scored for Fulham.

Impressive return of Erling Haaland

Back on the pitch in the 64th minute, Haaland scored City’s winner in the 90th+5th minute, also from the penalty spot, after Robinson had fouled De Bruyne in the box. The Norwegian also scored in the 74th minute, the goal was disallowed by VAR for offside.

“Manchester City” temporarily rises to the first place, waiting for the mistake of the London “Arsenal”, which will go to the field of “Chelsea”.
