That is Manchester City these days: an untidy, diminished, sometimes even slapstick version of what they used to be. Haaland put Manchester City ahead from the penalty spot PAMaybe Gundogan epitomised his dilemmas. Brighton, through Baleba and Pedro, missed chances too but went level again after blitzing a passive City at the start of the second half. For City, González hit a post with a header but then Brighton again exposed their vulnerability by almost scoring on the counterattack. Booked Pedro, Mitoma, Baleba, Wieffer, Verbruggen.
