Haaland scores 93rd-minute penalty as Man City defeats Liverpool 2-1

Manchester City edged past Liverpool 2–1 at Anfield in a breathless contest decided deep into stoppage time. Dominik Szoboszlai put the hosts ahead with a superb free-kick before Bernardo Silva struck late to level the score. Chaos followed as Erling Haaland calmly converted a 93rd-minute penalty to complete the turnaround. VAR ruled out a sensational halfway-line effort from Rayan Cherki, while Szoboszlai’s dismissal left Liverpool a man short in this pivotal 2025/26 Premier League clash.
