A Manchester City marksman is taking it one game at a time as his strong season continued against Brentford Erling Haaland scored a goal and grabbed an assist yesterday as Manchester City beat Brentford 3-0 at the Etihad Stadium to move within two points of Arsenal who sit top of the Premier League table. Mikel Arteta’s side have an opportunity to restore the gap at the top of table to five points if they beat West Ham at the London Stadium later today. City will have a game in hand on Arsenal after the Gunners match against West Ham.
All City can do is take it one game at a time and see where that takes them for the remainder of this season as Erling Haaland pointed out after his team’s win. Erling Haaland said after his team’s win over Brentford that they are taking it one game at a time from now on. All Manchester City can do from here is win their remaining three Premier League matches of the season and see where that takes them.
If Arsenal win their remaining three games, they’ll be crowned Premier League champions. That’s the reality of the situation that City are facing in the title race. Pep Guardiola’s side can only take it one game at a time, and focusing on their next opponent rather than looking too far ahead is the best practice for City.
This fact wasn’t lost on Erling Haaland when he spoke after Manchester City’s 3-0 win over Brentford. In an interview published on mancity. com , Erling Haaland said he was happy that Manchester City beat Brentford yesterday.
But he reiterated that City can only rest and focus on their next opponent, and nothing else. He explained: “ It feels good to win 3-0. We just missed the last shot on goal today.
