Manchester City secured a comfortable 2-0 victory over Everton in the eighth round of the Premier League, thanks to a clinical brace from their star striker, Erling Haaland. The Norwegian forward continues his remarkable form, now having scored in 11 consecutive matches — an extraordinary feat that underscores his vital role in the City attack.
Aside from Haaland’s goal-scoring exploits, the match also marked a significant milestone for Josep Guardiola, who celebrated his 350th Premier League game as Manchester City’s manager. Since taking charge of the club, all of Guardiola’s league appearances have been exclusively with the Citizens, cementing his legacy as one of the club’s most influential figures.
In comparison, Everton’s manager David Moyes boasts a wealth of Premier League experience, having managed 724 games, making him the third-highest in the league’s all-time managerial appearances list. Only the iconic Sir Alex Ferguson (810 games) and Arsène Wenger (828 games) stand ahead of him.
Guardiola’s recent achievements extend beyond appearances. In the previous round, he set a new Premier League record by becoming the fastest manager to reach 250 wins, further showcasing his status among the elite in English football management.
