Haaland penalty saved as Man City drop points against Everton

Erling Haaland saw his penalty saved by goalkeeper Jordan Pickford as Manchester City suffered yet another loss of points in the Premier League.

The game played at the Etihad Stadium saw the hosts held to a 1-1 draw by Everton.

Bernardo Silva had opened scoring for City in the 14th minute before Iliman Ndiaye equalised for the Toffees in the 36th minute.

Then Haaland could have sealed victory for City in the second half but had his penalty stopped.

The penalty opportunity came seven minutes into the second half when left-back Vitalii Mykolenko chopped down Savinho inside the area.

Pep Guardiola’s side, once all-conquering, are in unfamiliar territory amid a staggering fall-off, with just one win now in their past 13 games in all competitions.

The result leaves the champions sixth in the table, three points adrift of Nottingham Forest in fourth and 11 behind leaders Liverpool, with those two sides to play later on Thursday.
