Former Arsenal striker Ian Wright has outlined how Brentford's resolute defending managed to keep Manchester City star Erling Haaland quiet on Saturday.
City suffered a frustrating afternoon at the Etihad with an Ivan Toney double securing the victory for the away side. The English striker was dominant for the Bees but his opener was cancelled out by a Phil Foden equaliser.
As the Blues pushed for a winner deep into second-half stoppage time, they were caught on the break with Toney tapping in their second. While Thomas Frank's side excelled in attack, their defence was the subject of praise from Wright on Match of the Day.
