Haaland decides City-Coventry (1-0) with a header

Dia de Jogo — jornal desportivo5 September 2026 at 17:49

Norwegian striker Erling Haaland scored the only goal of the match at 26 minutes, heading into Coventry City's goal following a cross made by Semenyo. Manchester City thus defeated Coventry City 1-0.

The match took place in England, apparently being a semi-final of the FA Cup. Haaland, who has been a key piece in the Citizens' attack this season, took advantage of Semenyo's assist to decide the match with a precise header.

With this result, Manchester City secured their place in the final of the competition, maintaining their aspirations to win another trophy this season. Coventry City, a team from the English second division, was eliminated at this stage of the competition.

Haaland's goal represented the difference between the two teams throughout the entire match, with Coventry's goalkeeper unable to stop the powerful header from the Norwegian striker.
