The Swedish national team player played forward to Callum Hudson-Odoi, who cut in from the side and scored 1–0 from a distance in the 72nd minute. A goal that meant three points to Nottingham. Elanga started on the bench and was substituted in the 61st minute.

The result means that Liverpool and their new head coach Arne Slot have lost for the first time this season.

On the other hand, Saturday afternoon became more enjoyable for Manchester City – despite a real nightmare start. Already after 22 seconds, Yoane Wissa scored 1–0 for Brentford in front of a shocked City crowd.

But it seems like nothing can stop Erling Braut Haaland in the Premier League right now. The Norwegian is already leading the top scorer list by a wide margin and continued his goal fest now.

With two goals before halftime, Haaland had turned the match around. 2–1 to City and Haaland has now scored nine goals in the first four matches.

City is the only team with a full score, twelve points, after four rounds.
