    Manchester City striker Erling Haaland insists they never doubted their ability to turn the tide in their heavyweight clash against Chelsea in football's Premier League


    The Sky Blues netted three unanswered goals to claim a 3-1 home win and return to fourth on the table.

    Haaland - who's deft chip gave City the lead midway through the second half - explains how they stayed composed after conceding in the third minute.



    League leaders Liverpool beat Ipswich 4-1 to maintain a six point gap on Arsenal - who edged Wolves 1-nil.
