Newcastle 3-3 Manchester City
In a crazy match, Newcastle United drew with Manchester City by three goals for each team in the third round of the English Premier League at St James' Park.
Scores for Manchester City Ilkay Gundogan, Erling Haaland and Bernardo Silva, while goals scored by Newcastle Miguel Almiron, Callum Wilson and Kieran Trippe.
Bernardo Silva started with Manchester City for the first time in the league this season, with Riyad Mahrez on the bench.
Jack Grealish was absent from the Manchester City squad due to injury.
Manchester City started the match strongly, with Rodri hitting the crossbar from outside the penalty area in the fourth minute.
One minute after that, Bernardo Silva played an elaborate cross into Gundogan and netted it.
Manchester City continued to dominate, Haaland passed to De Bruyne in the tenth minute, and the Belgian shot to block Bob.
Bob came back to save a shot from Phil Foden in the 15th minute.
Newcastle then began to enter the atmosphere of the match when St. Maximin played a cross to Almiron, who fired from the six-yard boundary over the crossbar.
Manchester City responded with a direct free kick from De Bruyne, which was successfully saved by Bob in the 20th minute.
Then Robin Diaz replaced the injured Nathan Ake.
Newcastle continued to dominate, with St. Maximin missing the equalizer after Kyle Walker dribbled past and Ederson saved a shot.
The role came to Wilson after that to waste the equalizer again in the 27th minute after a corner and a prelude from Butman, and the English striker made a weak shot that Ederson saved.
Two minutes later, Almiron scored the equalizer after a perfect cross from Saint-Maximin.
Newcastle surprised Manchester City again in the 39th minute with the second goal by Callum Wilson after a pass from Saint Maximin.
This became the first time that a team coached by Eddie Howe scored twice against Pep Guardiola in 13 games.
Saint-Maximin
Saint-Maximin made two goals in the first half, which is more than the number of assists he made all past season on Saint James Park (one assist).
Manchester City tried to regain the initiative in the second half, to hit Erling Haaland from outside the penalty area strongly, and his shot hit the post.
Kieran Trippier then thundered in his own way from a direct free kick that Ederson could not prevent in the 54th minute.
Trippe scored his third goal from a direct free kick since the start of 2022, more than any player in the five major leagues, and equal to James Ward Prowse of Southampton.
Newcastle then retreated, and City controlled the match, and Haaland managed to reduce the difference in the 61st minute after a corner kick, paved by Rodri, to the Norwegian, who shot powerfully from inside the six yards into the net.
Haaland became the third player to score for Manchester City in his first two Premier League games away from home, after Emmanuel Adebayor and Emily Mpensa.
The Norwegian missed the equalizer two minutes later, after a pass from Kevin De Bruyne, to leave goalkeeper Bob alone and hit his body.
The equalizer came through Bernardo Silva in the 64th minute after a magical pass from De Bruyne, which the Portuguese netted.
Bernardo Silva scored and assisted in the same Premier League match for the fourth time in his career.
Eddie Howe then entered, with Chris Wood and Sean Longstaff replacing Callum Wilson and Joe Willock in the 70th minute.
The referee then declared the red card in the face of Kieran Trippe after a strong intervention on De Bruyne, before returning to the video technology, and the penalty turned into a yellow card only in the 76th minute.
Then Haaland shot from inside the penalty area strongly, but his shot came just over the crossbar.
Howe stepped in again, putting Jacob Murphy in Miguel Almiron's place.
Manchester City continued to press after that, without succeeding in achieving the winning goal, to raise the Citizens' tally to the seventh point in second place.
While Newcastle's balance rose to the fifth point in sixth place.
