Erling Haaland was the hero, calmly slotting home his second-half penalty to notch his 28th Premier League goal of the season and move City within two points of leaders Arsenal.
The Norwegian’s opportunity came after a short corner resulted in Palace winger Michael Olise tripping City captain Ilkay Gundogan in the box.
Haaland proud after victory after Palace
Pep Guardiola‘s side had created several chances in the match but failed to capitalise on our dominance before that point.
Rodrigo, Jack Grealish and Haaland all had efforts before the break but it was down to our No.9 to win the game from the spot.
The victory extends City’s impressive recent run of form with five wins in our last six league games and Guardiola‘s record at Selhurst Park to five wins and two draws.
