Manchester City Overcome Nottingham Forest in 2-0 Victory

Haaland Seals Win as City Bounce Back

WEB NOTTINGHAM, England (AP) - Erling Haaland came off the bench to score a late goal and seal a 2-0 win for Manchester City over Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on Saturday.

First-Half Dominance from City

Phil Foden had given City the lead in the first half, but Forest had fought back and were unlucky not to level the game before Haaland's introduction.

Haaland's Clinical Finish

The Norwegian striker, who had only been on the pitch for 12 minutes, showed his predatory instincts when he pounced on a rebound to score his 27th goal of the season in all competitions.

Forest's Resilience

Despite the defeat, Forest can take heart from their performance, which was far more competitive than their 6-0 loss to City earlier this season. They were unlucky not to score an equalizer and will be hoping to build on this performance in their upcoming fixtures.

City's Title Charge

The win keeps City top of the Premier League table, five points clear of Arsenal. They will be confident of extending their lead when they face Tottenham Hotspur in their next game.
