Manchester City beat Crystal Palace away 1–0.
Erling Haaland is on his way to the Premier League goal record in one season. PDO
Even before the match between Manchester City and Crystal Palace, the public drew attention to the difference between the teams.
Palace had scored a total of 21 goals in the Premier League this season.
City have one player, a Norwegian striker Erling Haalandwho had finished alone 27 times.
Against that background, it was certainly no surprise that Haaland also emerged as the decider of Saturday night’s league match. This time he surely slotted the 78th-minute winner into the bottom corner after first deflecting the keeper Vicente Guaitan to another corner.
Haaland’s 28th league goal was enough for a tight away win. Palace defended valiantly against a clearly more skilled team, and they certainly had a lot to lose from City’s decisive goal.
The situation arose when Michael Olise rush completely headlong by Ilkay Gündoğan on, even though the German didn’t even have the ball anymore.
City received the gift scorer and the three points it produced. At the same time, it reduced Arsenal’s league lead to just two points. However, the Gunners have yet to play their match of this round. It will face Fulham in a local game in London on Sunday.
The one who flashed his genitals in public and had a crisis in his relationship Kyle Walker got on the field for a few minutes.
– It’s a private matter. We’re dealing with it behind closed doors, manager Pep Guardiola justified the defender’s withdrawal.
Haaland is seriously aiming for the Premier League single-season goal record, which currently stands by Alan Shearer and Andy Cole in names (34). City still have 11 rounds to play.
