EPL: Haaland’s Late Goal Secures Victory For City
Norwegian forward Erling Haaland, stole the win for Manchester City as the Blues beat Fulham 2-1 at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday.
Joao Cancelo’s red card in the first half had seen the Blues struggle to secure all three points until Haaland came into the game from the bench as a substitute.
The win pushes City back to top of the league table, at least for 24 hours, with 32 points, with Fulham in eight place with 19 points.
Haaland had suffered a knock last week in the Champions League on his return to Borussia Dortmund, that kept him out of the midweek game against Sevilla, leaving fans to wonder if he would return for today’s match against Fulham.
Midfielder and captain, Kevin De Bruyne was man of the match.
