Haaland shrugged off Jan Bednarek to convert Matheus Nunes’ fifth-minute cross, netting his 11th league goal this season and seemingly setting up City for a comfortable victory.
EDITOR’S PICKS
Despite City’s dominance, a mix of Southampton’s resilient defending and missed chances—particularly from Haaland—kept the game tense until the final whistle.
The victory extended City’s unbeaten league streak to 32 games, bringing them within six weeks of marking a full year since their last defeat, which came against Aston Villa in December.
While Southampton showed grit, the result leaves them languishing near the bottom of the table, with only a single point almost a quarter of the way through the season.
Manager Russell Martin, looking to turn the club’s fortunes in their return to the top flight, will hope for patience from the club’s owners as they face a tough road ahead.
