LONDON: Manchester City moved to the top of the Premier League on Sunday as Erling Haaland shattered a 92-year goal landmark while Julian Alvarez scored a stunner to clinch a 2-1 win at Fulham.
Haaland also moved level with Alan Shearer and Andy Cole's single-season Premier League record total.Carlos Vinicius equalised for Fulham but Alvarez's first goal in six games, a brilliant long-range effort, lifted City one point clear of second-placed Arsenal. With Haaland's goal spree showing no signs of slowing, few would bet against them taking advantage of Arsenal's collapse.
In the immediate aftermath of Wednesday's crucial 4-1 demolition of Arsenal, Guardiola had dismissed suggestions the title race was over.Guardiola reminded his players they were held to a surprise draw at Nottingham Forest in their next match after beating Arsenal in February. History in his sights, Haaland took the ball with a determined look and confidently drove his penalty low past Bernd Leno.Harry Wilson's pass found Vinicius and the Brazilian took advantage of City's sloppy marking to drill a powerful finish past Ederson from 10 yards.
Taking possession 25 yards from goal, Alvarez held off a Fulham challenge before shifting into position to unleash a sublime strike that gave Leno no chance as it whipped into the top corner.
