Haaland’s stoppage-time penalty secured Manchester City's first Anfield win since 2003, keeping them six points behind Arsenal with 13 games left in the Premier League title race.
- On February 8, 2026, Erling Haaland converted a stoppage-time penalty to give Manchester City a 2-1 win at Anfield after seven minutes were added.

- With the victory, Manchester City remains nine points behind Arsenal and secured their first Anfield win before a crowd since 2003.
- A sequence of late twists produced a ludicrous ending as VAR reviewed a 12 added minutes psychodrama, disallowing Rayan Cherki's finish and sending off Dominik Szoboszlai for denying a goalscoring opportunity.
