Kevin De Bruyne scored a landmark headed goal against Brighton, helping Manchester City to a 0-4 win and maintain their unbeaten streak. This goal was De Bruyne’s sixth of the season and his first ever headed goal in the Premier League. Despite not being known for his heading ability, De Bruyne looped a header into the top corner following a cross from Kyle Walker, who provided two assists in the game.

Reflecting on his unusual header, De Bruyne humorously admitted that heading is not something he is good at. However, he praised the team’s performance and emphasized the importance of preparing well for each game and focusing on winning. Manager Pep Guardiola also commended De Bruyne’s header and joked that he is welcome to try it again in future games. The victory against Brighton helped Manchester City leapfrog Liverpool in the table as they continue their pursuit of a fourth successive Premier League title.

Manchester City will be looking for another win when they face Nottingham Forest on Sunday, with De Bruyne potentially having the opportunity to score another header in the game. Despite his lack of expertise in heading, De Bruyne’s goal against Brighton showcased his versatility and contribution to the team’s success this season.
