On Sunday, Arsenal managed to tie with Man City, but Man City could have won if Erling Haaland had scored a key goal near the end of the match.
The match didn't provide many opportunities for scoring, as Haaland was effectively dealt with by defensive players William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes.
Despite having a prime opportunity to score in the 83rd minute, the forward failed to fulfill his duties and missed his shot entirely.
A ball from the right-hand side was redirected and eventually landed at the spot where Haaland was patiently positioned on the far side of the goal.
Nevertheless, the striker was not able to connect with the ball, which rendered Gary Neville almost speechless.

The person who was commentating on the Sky broadcast took a brief pause before stating that it seemed as though Haaland had no prior experience playing football.
City's 57-game record of scoring at home came to a halt with a final score of zero goals on both sides.
Haaland has played against Arsenal for the third time this season and couldn't score a goal.
Earlier today, Liverpool won 2-1 against Brighton, putting them in the lead with a two-point difference from Arsenal, who is in second place. City is one point behind in third.
In Sunday's game against Arsenal, Erling Haaland missed his one and only significant opportunity.
