After Manchester United started the 2023-2024 EPL Matchday 11 with a slim win over Fulham, the five games that took place simultaneously afterward recorded baptism of goals.

The goal rush was heavy at the Etihad Stadium where Manchester City hosted Bournemouth. It was expected that the EPL reigning champions would beat the struggling Bournemouth but not with a 6-1 scoreline.

Goals from Jérémy Doku, Bernardo Silva, and Manuel Akanji gave Manchester City a 3-0 lead in the first half. Silva scored another goal in the second half. Also, Phil Foden and Nathan Aké added one each to seal the 6-1 victory as Luis Sinisterra’s 74th-minute strike was just a consolation for the visitors.
