HIGHLIGHTS | Man City 2-1 Bournemouth | Late comeback seals win in league opener!

Enjoy bite-sized action from City’s thrilling 2-1 win at home to Bournmouth in what was a dramatic 2026/27 Premier League opener.

In what was manager Enzo Maresca’s first league game since taking charge at the Etihad, City staged a remarkable late comeback, scoring twice in the final six minutes to claim a precious three points.

Marcus Tavernier had struck first on 26 minutes to give the Cherries the lead – and with time running out seemingly all three points.

City though, again demonstrated our capacity for fighting until the very end.

After creating several fine chances, the Blues claimed a deserved 85th minute leveller through Marc Guéhi’s header from substitute Rayan Cherki’s corner.

And a memorable comeback was then sealed a minute into stoppage time when Joško Gvardiol struck from close range – Cherki again the creator.

Though the effort was initially disallowed for offside, a subsequent VAR check saw the strike allowed sparking scenes of wild celebration at the full time whistle.
