Premier League: Haaland, Kovacic Score As Manchester City Beat Chelsea 2-0
Kevin De Bruyne: Erling Haaland celebrated his 100th appearance for Manchester City in trademark fashion, scoring the opening goal as the reigning Premier League champions kicked off their title defence with a 2-0 win over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
Haaland once again proved his worth with a clinical finish in the 18th minute. Latching onto a perfectly weighted pass from Bernardo Silva, the Norwegian striker calmly dinked the ball over Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez, notching his 91st goal for City since joining from Borussia Dortmund in 2022.
Kevin De Bruyne came close to doubling the lead shortly after Haaland's opener, curling a shot just wide from the edge of the box. Jeremy Doku also tested Sanchez with a deflected effort, but the Chelsea keeper was equal to the task.
