Great play from Collins to help his keeper. He goes away from Haaland and is there to stop the shot on the line.
Man City 1-0 Wolves
So close to a second and surely game over.
City break with pace, Ilkay Gundogan ignores the run of Ilkay Gundogan and finding Jack Grealish instead.
The England international cuts onto his right peg and curls a shot goalwards, which beats Jose Sa but is headed off the line by Nathan Collins.

I think Semedo will do well to make it out for the second half. Lopetegui is furious with him. Every time he has the opportunity to put his foot on it, he's slashing and swiping at things.
This is a player who has been at Barcelona. It does get to the best of players when Man City put pressure on you.
Leeds 0-0 Brentford
Just the one added minute and we go to the break.
It hasn't been scintillating by a long shot.
Man City 1-0 Wolves
Kevin de Bruyne provided his 11th Premier League assist of the season - more than any other player.
Passmaster.
Leeds 0-0 Brentford
There has been a distinct lack of quality so far in this. Lots of huff and puff but nothing really clinical at either end.
It suits Brentford a a lot more than Leeds as it has taken a lot of the sting out of the crowd.
Man City 1-0 Wolves
Kevin de Bruyne comes again, looking for Erling Haaland once more but this time gets too much zip on the cross.

It's a penalty. But it was a foul on Traore on the halfway line. Players now feel like the referee is erring on the side of one team. He is not, he's been poor for both teams. David Coote is having a really tough afternoon.
Man City 1-0 Wolves
VAR Darren England says no.
Just a goal kick.
Not sure about that one, tbh.
Man City 1-0 Wolves
Nathan Collins does catch Jack Grealish on the follow through, will VAR see it the same way though?
Man City 1-0 Wolves
Now Jack Grealish down in the box.
Has he been fouled by Nathan Collins?
VAR is having a look.

Three things certain in life: death, taxes and a Haaland goal. It is brilliant from De Bruyne. the run from Haaland is outstanding because he gets the run and knows that Collins can't see him.
De Bruyne spots Haaland's run, puts it on a plate for him and crashes his header past the helpless Sa. Outstanding from Man City. When they want to turn it on, they are devastating. It's been coming.
Erling Haaland (39 mins)
Breakthrough!
Wolves held out for 39 minutes but City were pushing and take the lead.
Riyad Mahrez lays the ball off for Kevin de Bruyne, who swings a cross into the box for the towering Erling Haaland to plant an unstoppable header low into the net.
That's Haaland's 23rd Premier League goal of the campaign, the same number which wont the Golden Boot last term. We're only halfway through the campaign yet!
Leeds 0-0 Brentford
Rodrigo has been dipping in and out of this game so far, trying to find those pockets or space and moments when he can be most effective.
He skips inside a tackle on the edge of the box and fires a low shot that is easy enough for David Raya to save.

I'd like to see a spark, you just want the forward players to create something in the final third. At the moment Wolves are lacking that.
Man City 0-0 Wolves
Wolves do find space to come forward now but City have packed out the centre and the visitors are unable to make much head way.
You can see why they've only scored 12 league goals this season.

Apart from the last couple of minutes where Man City are starting to get a few shots on goal, I think Lopetegui would have been delighted with Wolves' organisation.
However, I think he would like more at the other end of the pitch as well, a bit more pressure on the backline of Man City. He's going mad again, he's not happy again.
It's for the good of the team, he is encouraging his team.
Man City 0-0 Wolves
City just not getting the final ball right, Jack Grealish's cross - aimed for Erling Haaland in the centre - goes straight through to Jose Sa.
Wolves will be very happy with how this is going so far.
Leeds 0-0 Brentford
This feels like your classic Brentford away display. They are biding their time, holding their opponent at arm's length and looking for the perfect moment to strike.
That moment almost comes as Rico Henry is found in acres of space on the left of the box. He can shoot but instead tries to find Ivan Toney. His pass is cut out, crucially, by Robin Koch for Leeds.
