Man City vs West Ham Highlights

Many people had low expectations for David Moyes' decimated Hammers team, but the guests showed grit and composure to make life difficult for the City residents right away. Angelo Ogbonna exemplified that by making multiple forceful clearances to stave off City's assaults while earning his first start in six games across all competitions. In actuality, it took Erling Haaland 24 minutes to even have a sniff of the goal as the Norwegian strained to meet Jack Grealish's cross but was unable to head it in.

West Ham occasionally made it difficult for the City backline, and Stefan Ortega Moreno, making his Premier League debut, stopped Jarrod Bowen's attempt at goal at the near post after latching onto Vladimir Coufal's throw. The half-hour mark came and went as the hosts continued to control possession, but they were unable to break through as Grealish's shot was deflected wide by Lukasz Fabiaski, Rodri was stopped by the crossbar after combining with Haaland, and John Stones headed wide.

All of West Ham and Ogbonna's efforts, though, were undone just four minutes into the second half when the Dutchman, Nathan Aké, headed home Riyad Mahrez's free-kick throw for his first league goal of the year after the center-back had put him onside. Even when Coufal had to leave the game due to injury, the Hammers continued to compete, but in the 70th, they were completely exposed. Haaland, who had already scored his first two Premier League goals against West Ham on the opening day, sprinted onto Grealish's pass and expertly dinked the ball over the advancing Fabiaski to set the record for the most goals scored in a single season with 35.

Man City vs West Ham Summary

Phil Foden's shot off Emerson Palmieri and past Fabiaski for City's 1000th goal under Pep Guardiola capped off a successful night for the Cityzens, who won their ninth straight Premier League match to retake first position while still having a game in hand over Arsenal. They also forced West Ham to suffer its first third straight league loss since 2023, despite the fact that the Hammers are still four points above the danger zone.
