Phil Foden has started the 2023/24 campaign in brilliant form, and the England international was on hand to open the scoring inside seven minutes against Nottingham Forest in Saturday’s 2-0 home win.
The midfielder’s clinical half-volley into the near corner of the Forest net rounded off a remarkable 46-pass move from City.
It’s our longest passing sequence leading to a goal on record in the Premier League [since 2006/07], with only Julian Alvarez and Haaland not involved in the move.
The only passing sequence to better Foden’s strike came in August 2014, when Nacer Chadli finished off a 48-pass move for Tottenham against Queens Park Rangers.

The only thing that I love about city is how fast they can drag their opponents our of their position or formula.
Serge oreo😂
only haaland didnt touch the ball for the 46 passes
And the pass into the goal (47) came from none other than number 47 Phil Foden! Credit to the guy that commented that.
Lets put it another way ! The 1st pass was just inside Citys half . The 40th pass was a back pass to Ederson . 40 passes to go backwards . They scored 6 passes later , without Forest even putting a tackle in .
Halaand was the only player not to touch the ball if I'm not mistaken
Very great and spectacular play of all player
Only Man city can do something brilliant like that, and then get rodri sent off for something so stupid!
Who watching this like a thriller movie
Nobody else can play passing football like City
Or just six passes from Edi 👍
Les go City ⚽⚽⚽💙

🌟 Star boy 🌟
Amazing build up
Ridiculous
46 passes and the 47th one was a goal from none other than #47 🔥🔥🔥
Man Citeh are the best team on the planet. Come back next year.
'Tis a thing of beauty 💙
47 touches…
This is actually truly soothing.
I needed that after beholding the anti-football that Arsenal vs Tottenham draw has proved to be.
This goal is amazing, the assist from Walker might seem easy but it's really not as he weighs his pass delicately in full run just for Foden to bury it in the net with a classy half volley.
Incredible goal
46 is too many. I honestly get bored by our 'patient' build up play.
LET THE TEAM TALK! Kevin De bruyne 2023 😎
I wish it was the reverse, 1 pass and 46 goals.
