Guardiola: 'It's the Premier League, You Can't Control'

Manchester City narrowly secured victory after nearly losing a 4-goal lead; Erling Haaland became the fastest player to reach 100 Premier League goals in 111 matches, Guardiola said.

  • Manchester City survived a dramatic 5-4 result at Fulham as Erling Haaland reached his 100th Premier League goal amid the mayhem.
  • Starting with the scoreline, City led 5-1 shortly after half-time with goals from Tijjani Reijnders and Phil Foden, while Emile Smith Rowe had pulled one back for Fulham before the interval.
  • The ground turned into a cauldron as substitute Samuel Chukwueze scored twice, his second past Gianluigi Donnarumma with 12 minutes left plus eight of stoppage time, while Josko Gvardiol cleared Josh King’s effort off the line.
  • Guardiola highlighted the game's emotion and the narrow league margin, saying he was at a loss to explain the near-collapse and joked about losing hair during eight minutes of added time; the result leaves City two points behind leaders Arsenal, who host Brentford on Wednesday.
  • Looking ahead, Pep Guardiola warned City's inexperience may cost them in the Premier League title race but praised Rayan Cherki, Bernardo Silva and Nico O'Reilly for their late contributions.
