Manchester City maintained their perfect start to the Premier League season with a 2-0 home win over Nottingham Forest on September 23, making it six wins out of six despite losing midfielder Rodri to a red card early in the second half.
In all, referee Anthony Taylor doled out 11 yellow cards along with Rodri's red, with seven of the yellows coming in a bad-tempered second half as Forest tried to leverage their extra man, but to no avail.
Phil Foden rifled the opening goal for City in the seventh minute and striker Erling Haaland was left unmarked to head home the second from a Matheus Nunes cross seven minutes later, as City dominated possession for the opening 45 minutes.
