Manchester City celebrated their second win in their second Premier League match on Saturday afternoon. After the Skyblues fell behind in the 7th minute against newly promoted Ipswich Town, the defending champions turned the game around to 3-1 within nine minutes. Shortly before the final whistle, Erling Haaland increased the final score to 4-1 with his third goal.

Champions Manchester City have also won their second game of the season in the English Premier League. The "Citizens" won 4:1 at home against newly promoted Ipswich Town. The match-winner was star striker Erling Haaland with three goals (12th/penalty, 16th, 88th). Pep Guardiola's team are top of the table for the time being. In contrast, fellow coach Oliver Glasner is still waiting for his first point of the season with Crystal Palace after a 2-0 defeat against West Ham.

Standing ovation for Gündogan
City fell behind early in the home opener through Sammie Szmodics (7th). However, the first two Haaland goals and a strike from Kevin De Bruyne (14th) turned the game around in the early stages. Haaland now has 94 goals after 101 competitive games for City. With 20 minutes remaining, former FC Barcelona captain Ilkay Gündogan made his comeback for Guardiola's side. The stadium visitors gave the German a standing ovation.
