Phil Foden lashes a venomous half-volley into the top corner to grab Manchester City’s equalizer just before halftime against Brentford.
The 22-year-old attacking midfielder, who has been in fine form for the reigning Premier League champions this season, netted his eighth goal of the season against Brentford on Saturday.
After going 1-0 down to an Ivan Toney header, Pep Guardiola’s side struggled to really get into the game for large spells of the first-half.
What a finish by Phil Foden to level the match just before the half!

As you can see in the footage below, the play starts when Kevin de Bruyne whips in a dangerous corner from the right hand side.
His cross then drops over the head of City defender Manuel Akanji but bounces up kindly for Foden, who smashes it home with a quite magnificent half-volley.
