TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Manchester City continued to maintain the pressure on Arsenal in the Premier League top-flight after a 3-0 victory over Fulham at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester on Thursday, February 12, 2026. City's three goals were scored by Antoine Semenyo (24'), Nico O'Reilly (30'), and Erling Haaland (39').
This victory moved City up to 53 points in second place, three points behind Arsenal at the top of the Premier League table. Fulham, on the other hand, dropped to 12th place with 34 points, still 10 points above the relegation zone.
City dominated from the start. Phil Foden twice threatened, but his efforts were thwarted by Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno. The hosts finally broke the deadlock through Semenyo, who capitalized on a rebound in the penalty area.
Fulham responded through Harry Wilson, but City goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma was able to keep his goal out. City then doubled their lead through O'Reilly, who finished off Semenyo's pass, before Haaland closed the first half with a goal from Foden.
In the second half, Fulham tried to reduce the deficit through Raul Jimenez and Rodrigo Muniz, but their ineffective finishing kept the score at 3-0.
In another match, Aston Villa narrowly won 1-0 over Brighton & Hove Albion at Villa Park. The only goal came from an own goal by Jack Hinshelwood in the 86th minute. The three points kept Villa in third place with 50 points, six behind Arsenal. Brighton remained in 14th place with 31 points.
Meanwhile, Burnley won 3-2 at Crystal Palace. Palace had taken the lead through two goals from Jorgen Strand Larsen, but Burnley turned the game around through Hannibal Mejbri, Jaidon Anthony, and an own goal by Jefferson Lerma.
Despite the win, Burnley remains in the relegation zone in 19th place with 18 points. Crystal Palace remains in 13th place with 32 points.
