Fans Hail Haaland's Brilliance As Manchester City Bounce Back With 3-1 Win Over Bournemouth

It was a comfortable evening at the Etihad Stadium as Manchester City got back to winning ways, easing past Bournemouth 3-1 to extend their strong home record. City fans were in celebratory mood after a dominant performance that saw Erling Haaland bag a brace, while Bournemouth supporters were left fuming at their team's defensive errors and questionable tactics.

After the match, Pep Guardiola hailed Haaland's ruthlessness, likening the Norwegian's current scoring form to the Ronaldo and Messi of this world .

For many City fans, this was exactly the kind of response needed after last week's defeat to Aston Villa.
