After blowing the lead to lose 2-1 at Brighton, Manchester City collapsed to their fourth straight loss, while Liverpool defeated Aston Villa 2-0 on Saturday to take a five-point lead at the top of the Premier League. Before losing at Bournemouth last Saturday, City had not lost in the league for almost a year. However, Pep Guardiola has lost four straight games for the first time in his storied managerial career after losing to Tottenham in the League Cup and suffering a 4-1 battering at the hands of Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League.
After Bart Verbruggen saved his first attempt, Erling Haaland poked in his 15th goal of the season on the second try, giving the English champions hope of recovering from their humiliating night in Lisbon on Tuesday.
However, City was allowed to play freely in the second half and was ultimately penalized by two Brighton replacements.
After City failed to clear in a goalmouth scramble, Joao Pedro scored the equalizer.
Days after finalizing a deal from Celtic, Matt O’Riley suffered a devastating ankle injury that forced him to wait for his Premier League debut.
Seven minutes from the end, the Danish international scored a spectacular goal after Pedro’s cross.
“At this time, we are unable to complete 90 minutes. Four straight losses. “We need to make changes quickly,” Guardiola remarked.
“Maybe after seven years winning six Premier Leagues, maybe one year another team deserves it.”
After barely thirty minutes, Liverpool began play at Anfield and swiftly took advantage of City’s most recent error.
In the 20th minute, Mohamed Salah was sent racing clear by Virgil van Dijk during an incredible counterattack.
Darwin Nunez grabbed the lost ball as Salah fell to the ground under duress and scored his third goal of the year from a sharp angle.
Wolves miss the mark
After yet another quick raid by Liverpool, Salah’s calm finish in the 84th minute gave them their ninth league victory and their 15th overall.
After Jurgen Klopp was replaced as manager in the offseason by Arne Slot from Feyenoord, Liverpool, who finished a far cry third to City the previous season, have been rejuvenated and are vying for their first English championship since 2020.
“In general we had control over the game and scored from two counter-attacks which is maybe not what we would expect,” Slot stated.
“The season will be difficult overall. Although we have a margin, it is slim. We have many obstacles ahead of us.
Villa has lost their last four games across all competitions, dropping them to seventh position.
Wolves defeated fellow struggling team Southampton 2-0 to move off the bottom of the standings and break a Premier League win drought that had lasted since April.
After a 13-game losing streak in the Premier League, Gary O’Neil was under tremendous pressure to perform. He got off to the ideal start when Pablo Sarabia scored Wolves’ fastest-ever Premier League goal after Matheus Cunha’s ball.
