Manchester City secured a 1-0 win over Coventry City at the Etihad Stadium, with Haaland's powerful 26th-minute header from Antoine Semenyo’s cross proving the difference and marking his 300th club goal in just 368 appearances.
New signing Enzo Fernández shone on emergency
debut after an injury warm-up switch, delivering the key pass that set up the
winner alongside fellow newcomer Iliman Ndiaye.
City dominated but held firm against Coventry's late pressure, moving top of the table with nine points from three games under Enzo Maresca.
