Man City faces Brentford in a thrilling Premier League clash where Haaland steals the show with a brace! 🚀⚽️

In what turned out to be a rollercoaster of an encounter, Manchester City faced off against Brentford at the Etihad Stadium, aiming to extend their winning streak to four games. Right from the kickoff, Brentford stunned the home crowd by scoring a blistering goal just 22 seconds into the match, thanks to Yoane Wissa. It was the fastest goal of the season and left Pep Guardiola’s men scrambling to respond. With a goal like that, everyone thought the Bees might just pull off an upset against the reigning champions.

However, Manchester City didn’t hang their heads for long. The invincible Erling Haaland, who has quickly become a household name in the Premier League, restored parity in the 19th minute with a clinical finish. Haaland’s knack for finding the back of the net was on full display again, proving why he’s a critical part of Guardiola’s plans. As the game unfolded, you could almost hear the collective sigh of relief from City fans – the anticipation of a comeback was palpable.

With the pressure mounting, the stage was set for Haaland to shine, and he didn’t disappoint. He effortlessly netted his second of the match, sealing a 2-1 victory for City. Despite Brentford's early lead, the champions showcased their resilience and class, marking another chapter in their quest for Premier League glory. The win not only preserved their perfect record but also solidified Haaland's place in the record books, surpassing Wayne Rooney’s record for the fastest start to a season in Premier League history.

As fans celebrated the win, they couldn’t help but reflect on the grit that both teams showed in that match. Brentford, despite the loss, proved they could perform on the big stage and became a robust contender in the league. With Haaland and his newfound partnership with Savinho, plus the steady contributions from seasoned players like Gundogan, City looks stronger than ever.

Did you know that Erling Haaland is only the third player in Premier League history to score over 50 goals in his first 50 appearances? It’s a feat that hasn’t been seen since the likes of legends like Suarez and Shearer. Meanwhile, Brentford has become known as the ‘Bees’ and their aim to achieve better results against top-tier teams in the league continues to draw admiration. Their ability to score early goals, as seen in this match, shows they are a team to watch this season!
