Before this game, Manchester City won 6 consecutive victories in various competitions, and Haaland even scored 10 consecutive games in various competitions, tying the team's history record. The outside world is looking forward to him completing the feat of 11 consecutive goals.

As a result, VAR determined that teammate Mahrez handball was the first, and he blew it back. Then, Mahrez lost another penalty and missed a good opportunity to score.
