In a thrilling match against Tottenham, Erling Haaland showcased his brilliance by scoring two crucial goals that helped Manchester City secure a vital 2-0 victory, propelling them towards a potential historic fourth consecutive English title.
City’s first-ever league goal at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium came from a precise Kevin De Bruyne cross, which Haaland expertly tapped in early in the second half. To seal the victory, Haaland converted a late penalty.
With this win, Pep Guardiola’s side now sits two points ahead of Arsenal at the top of the table. A win against West Ham in their upcoming showdown at the Etihad would mean a fourth straight title for City, making them the first team in English top-flight history to achieve this remarkable feat.
