Manchester City achieved a great victory over its counterpart Ipswich Town 4-1, today, Saturday, in the second round of the English Premier League.

Erling Haaland scored a hat-trick and Kevin De Bruyne also netted as City claimed a 100 per cent record after two games in their quest for a fifth successive title, while Ipswich Town continued their quest for a first point.

Sammy Smodics opened the scoring in the seventh minute, latching on to Ben Johnson's pass and firing home a shot that was mishandled by Ederson.

City responded to the blow by scoring three goals in 191 seconds, starting with a Haaland penalty in the 12th minute.

De Bruyne capitalised on a mistake by the Ipswich goalkeeper to put City ahead, before Haaland doubled the lead after De Bruyne's pass.
