Phil Foden’s sensational hat-trick propelled Manchester City to a remarkable comeback triumph against Brentford, closing in at just two points behind the Premier League leaders.
Despite an early lead by Brentford through Neal Maupay, Foden's heroics secured a pivotal victory for the reigning champions.
Noteworthy was Foden's standout performance, especially with the presence of Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne in the City lineup for the first time since August of the previous year.
The match itself became historic, marking the highest-scoring round in the history of ten Premier League matches, with a total of 45 goals.
Despite not finding the net himself, Haaland's return to the starting lineup significantly bolstered City's attacking prowess.
While City is in pursuit of Liverpool at the summit of the table, they possess a game in hand, potentially proving crucial in the unfolding title race.
