Not only had Kepa Arrizabalaga saved an Erling Haaland penalty, they were in front thanks to Evanilson’s scrambled finish.City were on the canvas. They would clamber up in fine style. Haaland had missed other chances and he would be forced off with an injury. But before he went, he had scored the equaliser. The match-winner would be his replacement.
