Man City beat Southampton to go top of table

Manchester City reclaimed the Premier League summit after Erling Haaland's early goal secured a victory over a faltering Southampton.

Haaland capitalized on a fifth-minute cross from Matheus Nunes, outmuscling Jan Bednarek to score his 11th league goal of the season, putting the visitors in a strong position.

However, Southampton's resilient defense and City's lack of finishing, particularly from Haaland, created tension for the away side as the match approached its conclusion.
