Yoane Wissa put Brentford ahead in the first minute but Erling Haaland ensured Manchester City made it four wins from four with a 2-1 victory
Erling Haaland now has a record nine goals in Manchester City’s opening four Premier League matches, eclipsing Wayne Rooney’s previous mark of eight in 2011-12. In an invigorating contest the Norwegian’s double claimed the three points to secure a maximum 12 from 12 for the champions.
Guardiola met this with a twist away in disgust. A repeat move was nearly sighted when a porous City allowed Bryan Mbeumo in but Rico Lewis thwarted him as he shaped to shoot and now Frank, head in hands, felt despair. Scoring is simply – and admirably – what Haaland does. Rodri’s expertise at controlling a match is as reliable but watching on from the bench he was missed as the Bees once more punched through City. This was along the hosts’ right and claimed a corner but the champions escaped.Not Brentford, moments later. This was route-one football the Guardiola way. Haaland stamped forward from just inside his half as Ederson dropped a ball into Brentford’s half.
