Manchester City edged a dramatic 2-1 victory over Fulham thanks to a stoppage-time penalty from substitute Erling Haaland.
The Manchester City striker thought he had scored shortly after coming on in the second half, only for his effort to be disallowed for offside after a VAR review.
But, after Kevin De Bruyne had been fouled by Antonee Robinson in added time, Haaland kept his nerve to beat Bernd Leno from the spot.
