"The Norwegian headed City in front in the 58th minute as he powered home from Nico O'Reilly's left-wing cross. And five minutes later he doubled City's advantage and left Everton with a mountain they could not climb, his low effort somehow creeping below Jordan Pickford to go above Arsenal and Liverpool, with Crystal Palace's late equaliser against Bournemouth ensuring Pep Guardiola's men do move to the summit ahead of the Gunners' game with Fulham."
"Beto saw a glorious chance to break the deadlock for Everton go begging as Beto was unable to make proper contact with Iliman Ndiaye's low cross. Jake O'Brien headed against his own post from a corner under pressure from Haaland at the other end, but the visitors continued to cause problems and only a fine save from Gianluigi Donnarumma prevented Ndiaye from putting Everton ahead."
Manchester City moved to the top of the Premier League after a 2-0 win over Everton. Erling Haaland scored both goals, heading home in the 58th minute from Nico O'Reilly's left-wing cross and adding a low finish five minutes later after a build-up involving Phil Foden and Savinho. Everton had several chances in the first half, with Beto failing to connect with Iliman Ndiaye's cross, Jake O'Brien inadvertently hitting his own post, and Gianluigi Donnarumma producing a fine save to deny Ndiaye. Jordan Pickford made important saves later to keep Everton in the contest, but Haaland was decisive.
