Manchester City leads the English Premier League table with the advent of the first international break, three points ahead of its closest rivals, following its exciting 5-3 victory over its guest Sunderland on Sunday.
The confrontation witnessed the brilliance of Antoine Simenho, who scored a brace for the hosts, while Sunderland’s goals were scored by Brian Brobbey. Despite Sunderland’s success in returning the result twice, and the shadow of commentary that hovered over the match until the last minutes, Erling Haaland was able to secure the three points for City, so the team maintained its perfect record and full mark at the beginning of the season.
In other matches, Liverpool coach Andoni Iraola returned to the stadium of his former team, Bournemouth, to achieve only his second victory in the league since taking over at Anfield, after defeating the host with a single goal scored by Alexander Isak in the second half.
On the other hand, Leeds United continued its unbeaten record, but missed the opportunity to break into the top four after settling for a goalless draw at home against its guest, Crystal Palace.
