But a night of personal glory was almost ruined when Fulham came back from 5-1 down and came close to a painful equalizer in stoppage time when Josh King&#8217;s shot was cleared over the line.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s not good enough, we all know that and we need to improve as a team,&#8221; Haaland told Sky Sports. <\/p>\n<p>Haaland&#8217;s goal from close range was his 100th goal in 111 games. This saw him break England icon Alan Shearer&#8217;s record, taking 124 games to reach that benchmark.<\/p>\n<p>Newcastle twice took the lead against Tottenham, but Cristian Romero scored his second goal in the fifth minute of stoppage time to draw the game 2-2. Jack Grealish scored the only goal of the match as Everton defeated Bournemouth 1-0.<\/p>\n<h2>City overcomes new fear<\/h2>\n<p>City&#8217;s victory closed the gap on leaders Arsenal, who host Brentford on Wednesday. However, it was also a game that exposed the weaknesses in the defense of Josep Guardiola&#8217;s team.<\/p>\n<p>city <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\">We took a two-goal lead at half-time against Leeds.<\/span> Saturday &#8211; Needs Phil Foden&#8217;s stoppage-time winner to avoid dropping points.<\/p>\n<p>It was a similar story against Fulham, with City leading 3-1 at half-time, with Tijani Lijnders and Foden adding to Haaland&#8217;s goals, and Emile Smith-Rowe pulling one back before half-time.<\/p>\n<p>Foden scored his second goal early in the second half, and with less than an hour left, Sander Berge&#8217;s own goal looked to have put City in full control.<\/p>\n<p>That was until Fulham hit back.<\/p>\n<p>Alex Iwobi scored Fulham&#8217;s second goal with a low curling shot from outside the box. Samuel Chukwueze then scored twice in six minutes to create a tense finale.<\/p>\n<p>Josko Gvardiol produced the decisive clearance that sealed City&#8217;s victory.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You ask what happened and I don&#8217;t have an answer. It&#8217;s the Premier League, right?&#8221; Guardiola said.<\/p>\n<h2>Romero saves Spurs<\/h2>\n<p>Late in stoppage time, Romero came to the rescue of Tottenham at St James&#8217; Park with an overhead kick.<\/p>\n<p>After the home side dominated the first half, Newcastle took a 1-0 lead through Bruno Guimar\u00e3es&#8217; goal in the 71st minute.<\/p>\n<p>Seven minutes later, Romero equalized with a header from the near post.<\/p>\n<p>Newcastle took the lead again in the 86th minute with Anthony Gordon converting a penalty, but the drama was far from over.<\/p>\n<p>Romero&#8217;s acrobatic shot wowed the home crowd, snatching a point from Spurs and preventing them from extending their run of points conceded to four games.<\/p>\n<p>Newcastle manager Eddie Howe described the late equalizer as &#8220;heartbreaking&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;ve had a similar experience this season in that we weren&#8217;t able to protect the lead at the end of the game and that&#8217;s something we have to reflect on,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Everton bounced back from their defeat to Newcastle with a win against Bournemouth on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>Grealish, on loan from Man City, scored his second goal of the season in the 78th minute.<\/p>\n<p>___<\/p>\n<p>James Robson is <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\">https:\/\/x.com\/James Saran Robson<\/span><\/p>\n<p>___<\/p>\n<p>AP Soccer: <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\">https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/soccer<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/erling-haaland-man-city-100-premier-scores-32faafbcf242cc8a0d8bd3df514baf04\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Erling Haaland scored his 100th Premier League goal on Tuesday as Manchester City overcame a stunning comeback from Fulham to move within two points of the top of the table.
