What a win by the lads!

Manchester City 1, Erling Haaland 5'

Southampton 0

Welcome to your quick recap.

Manchester City are leaving this Saturday clash with a great win and resolve shown as many players played really well. The match highlighted by Mateus Nunes and Erling Haaland who played extremely well after some criticism aimed their way recently.

A match that had a similar feel to most City matches, yet resulted in some good play for the team as the intensity was present early. It was a bit disjointed at points, but it was a satisfying performance ultimately in the end.

One where City was in control with possession and chances created. They played a very solid match and are still undefeated in this season.

City had so many players who played decently this time and that includes some lineup choices that were forced by injury & sickness.

Two other players of note who did play well and were lively were Josvko Gvardiol, and Bernardo Silva who showed up well.

The story of the night is that City get the win in the Premier League match and stay near the top.

A great result and we move.
