Manchester City moved to the top of the Premier League as Erling Haaland equalled the competition's single-season goal record and Julian Alvarez scored a stunner to clinch Sunday's 2-1 win at Fulham.
It was a warning that had the desired affect, even without Kevin De Bruyne, who was missing due to an injury.
History in his sights, Haaland took the ball with a determined look and confidently drove his penalty low past Bernd Leno.Harry Wilson’s pass found Vinicius and the Brazilian took advantage of City’s sloppy marking to drill a powerful finish past Ederson from 10 yards. Alvarez has found consistent game-time hard to come by in his first season at City due to Haaland’s excellence.
Taking possession 25 yards from goal, Alvarez held off a Fulham challenge before shifting into position to unleash a sublime strike that gave Leno no chance as it whipped into the top corner.
