Manchester City 3-2 Ipswich Town - Match Report
Sat Oct 17th 17:17
The Blues pushed Premier League leaders Manchester City right to the end of a lengthy spell of injury time, but were ultimately beaten 3-2 at the Etihad Stadium. Phil Foden gave the home side the lead on 19, Daizen Maeda levelled two minutes later, Erling Haaland restored his team’s advantage in the 34th minute, then made it 3-1 on 69, prior to Zian Flemming pulling one back from the penalty spot in the final minute to give City a nervous 12 minutes of injury time before their seventh straight Premier League win from the start of the season was confirmed.
