Manchester City suffered their ninth league defeat, losing 1-0 to Nottingham Forest after Callum Hudson-Odoi 83rd-minute goal. Rio Ferdinand took a jab at Erling Haaland, referencing his stay humble remark to Mikel Arteta last season. Haaland missed an early chance and now trails Mohamed Salah (25 goals) in the Golden Boot race, with Haaland at 20.

In the latest Premier League shock, Manchester City suffered their ninth league defeat of the season, losing 1-0 to Nottingham Forest at the City Ground. The match seemed destined for a goalless draw until Callum Hudson-Odoi struck in the 83rd minute, securing three vital points for Forest.

City, who could have moved up to third with a win, now trail Forest by four points. Erling Haaland, struggling for form, missed a golden chance in the eighth minute after a defensive mistake by Chris Wood. With 10 games left in the season, Haaland has scored 20 league goals, trailing Mohamed Salah (25) in the Golden Boot race. Newcastle duo Alexander Isak (19) and Chris Wood (18) are also close behind.

After the match, Rio Ferdinand took a playful jab at Haaland, referencing his past comment to Mikel Arteta to “stay humble” following City’s fiery 2-2 draw with Arsenal in September. Hudson-Odoi had urged his teammates to remain humble, prompting Ferdinand’s remark, which drew smiles from players and pundits alike.

This latest loss increases the pressure on City, who are struggling in their title defense. Meanwhile, Forest’s win keeps their Champions League hopes alive as the season nears its conclusion.
