Manchester city won in a dramatic way on the road against Sheffield and they have again proven their consistency over the last few games. The goal scored by Rodri saved Manchester City from a draw and they are increasingly confident at the top of the standings at this time. I had doubts that Manchester City would win this match but anything can still happen, especially for the reigning EPL champions last season. Throughout 90 minutes, Pep Guardiola only made one substitution and that is sometimes a bit risky if the team is in a draw. But indeed the winning mentality for the Manchester City squad is unquestionable and they are doing well so far.

Yes, the goal in the last minutes was the most expected, because throughout the game Manchester City dominated very much, but Sheffield were lucky all the time, moreover, they even scored a goal in the 85th minute, I don't even know what it had to do with. Although even the goal didn't help Sheffield, they are still on the 17th line of the standings.
To be honest, I think Sheffield is really expected to score when they can really put pressure on the Manchester City defense well. I believed that in the end Sheffield would score but unfortunately they failed to maintain the draw as Manchester City were able to take an early lead before the end.

In this match, Erling Haaland again scored a goal which put him at the top with 3 goals. Haaland didn't have many chances, but Manchester City's attack in this match was really good. It is undeniable that Sheffield really made it difficult for Manchester City to win this match even though in the end Sheffield had to give up.
