  "account": "On a day of defiance at Manchester City's Etihad Stadium, supporters turned their backs on the Premier League anthem, chanting \"City, City, City\" and waving inflatable bananas. Fans at the new record crowd of 60,817 made their feelings clear as they helped City pull six points clear at the top of the table with a 7-0 victory over Ipswich. Manager Enzo Maresca, the first to win seven games in a row since 1897, praised the fans' support and the team's unity. City's best start since 1897 came with a 19th-minute goal from Phil Foden, who returned from suspension to score his first of 2026. Despite off-field turmoil over breaches of financial rules, Maresca emphasized the team's focus on winning games and improving together.",
