It felt like Erling Haaland was never going to score against Arsenal, as he missed a procession of chances in Manchester City's huge win to take control of the title race.
Haaland would convert in the 94th minute to add gloss to a dominant City performance, breaking the record for goals scored in a 38-game Premier League season and leaving him one goal off the all-time record of 34 in a single season. His next goal will be his 50th for City, and he would usually be the headline story on a day where the title momentum swung firmly in the Blues' favour.
However this was a big game, and when the big games come around at the Etihad, Kevin De Bruyne usually steps up. With two goals and an assist, De Bruyne sent a message that he remains the best player in the squad.
