Overview
- City’s goals came via a 12th-minute own goal forced by Doku, Jaidon Anthony’s 38th-minute equaliser, Matheus Nunes’ 61st-minute volley, a second Estève own goal minutes later, and Haaland strikes on 90 and 93 minutes.
- Haaland’s late double moved him to a league-best eight goals in six matches, with Guardiola calling the striker’s numbers “insane.”
- Burnley’s Maxime Estève became only the sixth player to score two own goals in a Premier League game, a rare sequence that swung the contest.
- Doku tormented returning full-back Kyle Walker and set up Haaland’s first, as City controlled roughly 68% of possession and created sustained pressure.
- Nunes, deployed at right-back, both scored and delivered the cross for the second own goal, while Burnley boss Scott Parker said the 5-1 score felt harsh after long competitive spells.
