By the way in the aftermath of that goal, Nilson Angulo made way for Malick Fofana.

Can Bournemouth force their way back into this?
The goal has settled Liverpool somewhat and the visitors are knocking the ball around with much more authority now.

'It's coming to life now'published at 15:25 BST
Man City 4-3 Sunderland
Charlie Adam
Former Scotland midfielder on BBC Radio 5 LiveIt's coming to life now, two goals in the second half. Xhaka has been bright, showing experience.
A lovely weighted pass in behind Nunes and then it's to Brobbey again, coming here and scoring his first hat-trick.
Postpublished at 15:24 BST
Man City 4-3 Sunderland
Once again, it's a quickfire response from Sunderland after Manchester City score.
Enzo Maresca will be pleased with the goals his side have scored. But he'll be less happy with the defence. It's been messy at times.
That being said, I reckon it will be a similar message from Regis Le Bris.
YELLOW CARDpublished at 15:23 BST
Leeds 0-0 Crystal Palace
Adam Wharton goes into the referee's book for a poor tackle on Ao Tanaka after he lost control of the ball and attempted to recover it. That's a sore one, no complaints from Wharton who is perhaps lucky he did not end up connecting any higher on Tanaka's shin.
Postpublished at 15:22 BST
Leeds 0-0 Crystal Palace
Still goalless at Elland Road, but Crystal Palace have been much improved since the interval.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin has squandered Leeds' best chance of the second half. Since the start of last season in the Premier League, only Erling Haaland (34) has missed more big chances than the Leeds striker (24).

GOAL - Man City 4-3 Sunderlandpublished at 15:21 BST
Brian Brobbey (59 mins)
It's not over yet!
Brian Brobbey has his hat-trick. It comes into the box and the shot from Nilson Angulo looks like it will cross the line but Brobbey was taking no chances and he ensures it finds the roof of the net from close range.
Marc Guehi was arriving so it was well worth him sticking his boot out. Plus I'm sure he wanted that hat-trick.

Man City 4-2 Sunderland
Charlie Adam
Former Scotland midfielder on BBC Radio 5 LiveIt's good play from Man City, Cherki gets in there again.
It falls brilliantly for Semenyo or Haaland and Haaland leaves it for Semenyo and it's a left footed half valley. Unstoppable for goalkeeper Roefs.
Postpublished at 15:20 BST
Bournemouth 0-1 Liverpool
That's a big chance for Alexander Isak, but he pulls his shot wide.
The flag goes up for offside, and the tame finish suggests the Liverpool striker suspected it would.
GOAL - Man City 4-2 Sunderlandpublished at 15:19 BST
Antoine Semenyo (57 mins)
It's not the best of through balls from Rayan Cherki but Manchester City won't care.
Sunderland's defence get in a bit of a jumble and can't clear the ball, it drops to the feet of Antoine Semenyo who slots into the bottom far corner.
A lovely finish but again it was taking advantage of a Sunderland error.

YELLOW CARDpublished at 15:17 BST
Bournemouth 0-1 Liverpool
Alexander Isak receives a yellow card for his celebrations after he raced over to the away fans.
With his fourth goal, he has already surpassed his Premier League goal tally for the entirety of last season in the competition (three goals in 14 appearances).
Isak does so wellpublished at 15:16 BST
Bournemouth 0-1 Liverpool
Aadam Patel
Football Reporter at the Vitality StadiumAlexander Isak takes the finish so well.
He has had such a poor game but not one of those travelling supporters will care.
A fourth goal of the season for Isak.
'No mistake' for Isakpublished at 15:15 BST
Bournemouth 0-1 Liverpool
Rob Green
Former Premier League goalkeeper on BBC Radio 5 Live at Vitality StadiumIsak takes the plaudits from the Liverpool fans but it's Cody Gakpo down the right who does brilliant work and shrugs off two challenges.
He finds the cross from under his feet and Antonio Silva who's been brilliant ducks the way out of the ball and I'm not sure why.
That was the opportunity that Isak has been waiting for. No mistake from that.

Man City 3-2 Sunderland
Manchester City launch in the throw-in and Erling Haaland holds his man off to get the ball across for Iliman Ndiaye but the Senegal international's touch is way too heavy. He was running at full tilt so momentum has just taken that away from him.
GOAL - Bournemouth 0-1 Liverpoolpublished at 15:13 BST
Alexander Isak
Liverpool have been poor, Alexander Isak has barely been involved, but the visitors lead!
It's great work by Cody Gakpo to make room for the cross from the right, Florian Wirtz can't connect with it but Isak is there waiting and ready to slot in.
How the Reds needed that spark of inspiration from Gakpo.

Match Facts
Bournemouth have lost 14 of their 18 Premier League games against Liverpool (W3 D1), though all three victories have come at home – 4-3 in December 2016, 1-0 in March 2023, and 3-2 in January 2026.
Liverpool have only failed to score in one of their 18 Premier League games against Bournemouth. They average three goals per game against the Cherries (54 goals in 18 games), their highest average against any side they’ve faced 10+ times in the competition.
Bournemouth are winless in their first four Premier League matches this season (D3 L1) – only in 2023-24 have they had a longer winless start to a Premier League season, when they failed to win their first nine under current Liverpool manager Andoni Iraola.
Liverpool have drawn three of their first four games (W1) in a Premier League season for the first time since 2005-06. They drew their fifth game that season and that remains the only time the Reds have drawn four of their five league games in a season.
Bournemouth have failed to win any of their four Premier League games this season (D3 L1), despite leading in all of them; only Manchester City in January 2004 and Tottenham Hotspur in both October 2007 and December 2023 have ever gone five successive games in the competition's history of leading and not winning.
Bournemouth have drawn 13 of their 23 Premier League matches in 2026 (W8 L2), the highest ratio by a team in a single year in the history of the English top-flight (56.5%).
Liverpool have kept clean sheets in each of their last two Premier League games, more than in their previous 13 games combined (one). They haven't gone three in a row without conceding since a run of four between May and September 2024.
Andoni Iraola is set to face former club Bournemouth for the first time, with this the first time a Liverpool manager has faced one of their former Premier League clubs since March 2015 when Brendan Rodgers won 1-0 against Swansea. Reds managers are unbeaten in seven against former sides (W5 D2) since Kenny Dalglish lost 2-0 against Newcastle in April 2012.
No side has had more shots on target in the Premier League this season than Bournemouth (24), with their six per game under Marco Rose the most under any of the five managers to take charge of the Cherries in the competition.
Marcus Tavernier has scored in four of his last five Premier League appearances for Bournemouth (four goals), having only scored four times in his previous 24 games combined. His five games against Liverpool, however, has seen him on the losing side in all five games by an aggregate score of 22-2.
