Is there a surer bet in football than Pep Guardiola's Manchester City doing what they need to do in other words, win and keep winning when they have the Premier League title within their grasp? On the three previous occasions that they have been involved in neck-and-neck races for the line under Guardiola the margin for error slim to non-existent they have never slipped.
Their winning sequences have been long and devastating. Here we are again, City closing on yet another title, a sixth in total under Guardiola, this victory an eighth in a row when the pressure is at its most acute.
City had survived and they would enjoy a calm finale when Haaland made it 2-0 from the penalty spot after Pedro Porro had fouled another substitute, Jeremy Doku. City will be crowned again if or surely when they beat West Ham on Sunday.
