Manchester City survived a self-inflicted scare to beat Nottingham Forest 2-0 in the Premier League and make it six straight wins in the competition.
Manchester City survived a moment of madness from Rodri to make it six wins from six in the Premier League by beating Nottingham Forest 2-0 at the Etihad.
City looked to be cruising when they raced into a two-goal lead inside 15 minutes. Phil Foden broke the deadlock after brilliant work from Rodri and Kyle Walker, before Erling Haaland headed home the second from a Matheus Nunes cross. But the pattern of the game changed when Rodri was sent off seconds after the restart, losing control when he shoved Morgan Gibbs-White in the throat. That put the Blues on the back foot and they were penned in for most of the second half as Forest launched a valiant bid to get back into the game, but Pep Guardiola's side held firm.
