Haaland's penalty at 94 minutes and 33 seconds is Manchester City's latest winning goal in the Premier League since November 2017.
Many would have expected an easy ride for City when they took the lead in the first half through Julian Alvarez’s third Premier League goal.
While it was looking like a lost course and the points would be shared, City were handed a lifeline when Kevin De Bruyne was tripped in the box and Haaland stepped up to convert the penalty even though it wasn’t the best of kicks.At City Ground, Nottingham, three Super Eagles stars were in action in the game that ended in a pulsating 2-2 draw.
Yoane Wissa looked to have secured Brentford all three points after Bryan Mbeumo had equalised from the spot in the first half but an attempted clearance came back off Zanka and into the goal in the final minute of play to deny the Bees the win. But the Bees were awarded a penalty right on the stroke of half-time when Wissa was clipped by Forest goalkeeper Dean Henderson, allowing Mbeumo to slot home in the absence of the suspended Ivan Toney.
