Haaland fires 10-man Man City to memorable win over Man Utd
Erling Haaland fired 10-man Manchester City to a memorable 1-0 victory over Manchester United despite Phil Foden's first-half red card to extend a perfect start to Enzo Maresca's reign."I think Foden's red card is a red card, but I also think that in the same action it's a red card for them," said Maresca.
In a remarkable display of resilience, Manchester City, playing with 10 men after Phil Foden's red card, secured a 1-0 victory over Manchester United, despite leading the Premier League with 12 points. The match came down to the final moments, with a spectacular goal from Erling Haaland sealing the win. Foden had kicked out at United captain Bruno Fernandes early in the second half, leading to a contentious decision by the referee.
United's defeat further widens the gap between themselves and the top teams, while City's victory instills a sense of confidence and determination in their quest for a second consecutive title.
