Erling Haaland Ensured Manchester City’s Victory

DBasia.news – Erling Haaland continued to be the hero after coming off the bench and scoring a penalty in injury time as Manchester City earned a hard-fought 2-1 win over Fulham in the Premier League with only ten players.

The hosts usually start strongly and Bernardo Silva made an early save from Bernd Leno before Kevin De Bruyne tested the Fulham keeper with a powerful strike.

City’s opener came in the 17th minute. Ilkay Gundogan sent a fine pass for Alvarez and the Argentine fired a shot on goal.

Fulham tried to complicate the reigning champions after Andreas Pereira’s penalty equalized for the visitors in the 28th minute. A 12-point shot was awarded after Joao Cancelo fouled Harry Wilson and had to be sent off.

Haaland, who is now fit after a leg problem and injury but was not ready to start, came on in the 64th minute, replacing Alvarez.

Haaland scored the winner in injury time with a penalty after Antonee Robinson brought down Kevin De Bruyne in the box.

It was Haaland’s 23rd goal in his 17th appearance for City since he joined the club in the summer.
