After beating Sheffield United 2-1 on Sunday, Manchester City climbed to the top of the Premier League standings. Rodri’s game-winning goal in the 88th minute gave them their third victory of the year.
When the ball reached Phil Foden in the United box with the scores tied at 1-1 and time running out, Rodri stepped in to power a half-volley into the top corner despite the English midfielder having no control over it.
Champions City extended their unblemished start as they increased their point total to nine, two more than West Ham United, Tottenham Hotspur, and Arsenal.
Erling Haaland of the City missed a first-half penalty for handball after his shot hit the post.
By scoring with a close-range header off a cross from Jack Grealish just after the hour mark, the Norwegian made up for his earlier error.
In the 85th minute, Sheffield United equalized after the visitors took advantage of Kyle Walker’s poor backheel clearance. Jayden Bogle fired an angled shot through the crowd and past City goalkeeper Ederson.
When Rodri scored the winning goal, Paul Heckingbottom’s team was devastated. Sheffield United had just appeared to have earned their first point since making their return to the top division.
Despite having back surgery and missing the game at Bramall Lane, City manager Pep Guardiola still managed to get the job done. Seven additional minutes were added as the home team looked for a solution.
A pointless streak of three games has Sheffield United in 17th place in the standings.
Villa
Burnley, which has been winless since making their league return, was destroyed by Aston Villa thanks to two goals from Matty Cash.
The first game for Villa ended in a 5-1 loss at Newcastle, but they have since bounced back with three straight wins across all competitions.
Unai Emery’s team proved why they will be a force to be reckoned with this season at Turf Moor by scoring two goals, making full-back Cash the unlikely hero.
When Ollie Watkins broke through the Clarets’ defense and chipped the ball to the back post for Cash to score, it took the visitors just seven minutes to break down the defense.
Following a cutback from summer signing Moussa Diaby, who once again impressed, Cash of Poland scored the second goal with a fine team move.
