Manchester City Held As Leon Bailey Rescues A Point For Aston Villa

Erling Haaland extended his remarkable start to life in the Premier League, but Manchester City were held to a 1-1 draw after Leon Bailey snatched a late equaliser for struggling Aston Villa on Saturday. Haaland has been remarkably prolific since his 51 million pounds ($58 million) move from Borussia Dortmund in the close-season and he struck again in the second half at Villa Park. The Norway striker's 10th goal in his first six Premier League games gave him a share of the record with Micky Quinn, who hit the same tally for Coventry in 1992.
