Tijjani Reijnders made it 2-0 in the 37th minute, and just seven minutes later Phil Foden scored a convincing 3-0 with a beautiful shot.

However, Fulham did not give up. In stoppage time of the first half, Emile Smith Rowe reduced the score to 3-1 with a header and restored hope to the home team. But the hope was short-lived because Foden scored his own goal right at the opening of the second half, in the 48th minute, for 4-1. When, in the 54th minute, Sander Berge deflected the ball into his own net for 5-1 after Jeremy Doku’s shot, it seemed that the story was over.

Gvardiol očistio and spasio dva boda

However, then followed Fulham’s incredible comeback. Alex Iwobi reduces the score to 5-2 in the 57th minute, and then Samuel Chukwueze enters the scene. The Nigerian scored two goals, in the 72nd and 78th minutes, to bring Fulham to just a goal behind and caused complete panic in the ranks of Manchester City.

Croatian national team member Joško Guardiol played the whole game in the position of central defender alongside Ruben Dias. City eventually celebrated after the Croat cleared Josh King’s shot off the line in the eighth minute of stoppage time. City remained second with 28 points, two less than the leader Arsenal, while Fulham is in the fight to stay, 15th with 17 points.
