Erling Haaland On Target As Manchester City Lost To Brighton, 4-Game Losing Streak—-Premier League defending champion Manchester City lost to Brighton at American Express Community Stadium and now extend their losing streak to 4 games for the first since 2016.

Guardiola losing 4 straight games for the first time in his managerial career.

City had not suffered defeat in the league for nearly a year prior to losing at Bournemouth last weekend.

But after also exiting the League Cup to Tottenham and being on the end of a 4-1 thrashing by Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League, Pep Guardiola has lost four straight matches for the first time in his illustrious managerial career.

The English champions looked set to bounce back from their chastening night in Lisbon on Tuesday when Erling Haaland prodded in his 15th goal of the season at the second attempt after his initial effort was saved by Bart Verbruggen.

City, though, were opened up at will in the second half and were finally punished by a pair of Brighton substitutes.

Joao Pedro fired in the equalizer after City failed to clear in a goalmouth scramble.

Matt O’Riley has had to wait for his Premier League debut after suffering a serious ankle injury days after sealing a move from Celtic.

The Danish international marked his bow in style when he slotted in from Pedro’s pass seven minutes from time.
