Haaland’s spot-kick puts City on course for Champions League qualification

The final round of the 2024/25 Premier League season is unfolding with European places still up for grabs. Liverpool have already claimed the title, but the fight for Champions League qualification remains intense from second to eighth place.

At Craven Cottage, Manchester City extended their lead over Fulham when Erling Haaland scored from the penalty spot. The Norwegian striker’s goal gave City a two-goal cushion and solidified their hold on third place in the table.

Pep Guardiola’s side have endured an inconsistent campaign but are now on the verge of securing Champions League football for next season. Fulham, meanwhile, have struggled to contain City’s attacking threat throughout the match.
