Haaland scores his 100th Premier League goal as City beats Fulham 5-4. Romero nets 2 for Spurs

Erling Haaland scored his 100th Premier League goal on Tuesday and Manchester City moved to within two points of the top of the standings after surviving a stunning fightback from Fulham.

Haaland became the fastest player to reach a century of goals in the league with his 17th-minute opener in City's 5-4 win at Craven Cottage. But a night of personal glory was nearly wrecked as Fulham came back from 5-1 down and came agonizingly close to an equalizer in added time when Josh King’s effort was cleared off the line.

“It’s not good enough and we all know this and we need to improve as a team,” Haaland told Sky Sports.

Haaland’s goal — lashed in from close range — was his 100th in 111 games. It saw him break the record of England icon Alan Shearer, who reached that benchmark in 124 games.

Newcastle twice blew the lead against Tottenham to draw 2-2 after Cristian Romero scored the second of his goals in the fifth minute of added time. Jack Grealish scored the only goal of the game as Everton beat Bournemouth 1-0.

City's victory saw it close the gap on first-place Arsenal, which hosts Brentford on Wednesday. But it was another game when the defensive frailties of Pep Guardiola's team were laid bare.

City blew a two-goal halftime lead against Leeds on Saturday — needing a stoppage time winner from Phil Foden to avoid dropping points.

It was a similar story against Fulham as City led 3-1 at halftime, with Tijani Reijnders and Foden adding to Haaland’s goal, while Emile Smith-Rowe pulled one back before the break.

Foden got his second early in the second half and a Sander Berge own goal seemingly put City in total control with less than an hour gone.

That was until Fulham mounted a fightback.

Alex Iwobi got Fulham's second with a low curling effort from outside of the box. Samuel Chukwueze then scored two in the space of six minutes to set up tense finale.

Josko Gvardiol produced the crucial clearance to seal City's win.

“I know you’re going to ask what happened — I don’t have an answer. It’s the Premier League, right?” Guardiola said.

With an overhead kick deep into added time, Romero came to Tottenham's rescue at St James' Park.

Newcastle took a 1-0 lead through Bruno Guimaraes in the 71st after the home team had dominated the first half.

Romero leveled with a near-post header seven minute later.

Newcastle led again in the 86th when Anthony Gordon converted from the penalty spot, but the drama wasn't over yet.

Romero's acrobatic effort stunned the home crowd and salvaged a point for Spurs to prevent its losing run being extended to four games.

Newcastle manager Eddie Howe described the late equalizer as “heartbreaking.”

“We've had similar experiences this season in terms of not defending leads at the end of games and that's something we have to reflect on,” he said.

Everton bounced back from defeat to Newcastle on Saturday with victory at Bournemouth.

Grealish — on loan from Man City — scored his second of the season in the 78th.

BRANDYWINE, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 1, 2026--

One of Southern Maryland’s most storied agricultural estates, the P.A. Bowen Historic Mansion and Farm, a 95-acre estate and turnkey boutique farm, is headed to auction on Thursday, April 9, by Elite Auctions. The property includes a meticulously restored 1870s Italianate colonial mansion and a modern agricultural operation complete with dairy cows, pigs, meat birds, and turkeys.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260401340892/en/

Listed at $7.5 million, the property ( 15701 and 15407 Doctor Bowen Road ) is being sold by current owner Sally Fallon Morell, co-author of the landmark nutrition book “Nourishing Traditions,” who is retiring after 15 years of transforming the estate into a nationally recognized regenerative farm. Morell is also co-founder of the Weston A. Price Foundation, a nutrition education nonprofit based in Washington D.C.

“Properties like this simply don’t come to market,” said Tara McLean, president and co-founder of Elite Auctions. “Just an hour outside of Washington, D.C. you have a residence steeped in American history, a working award-winning farm with an established team in place, and a rare no-reserve auction that lets the market determine its value.”

Situated on land first patented in 1665, the property’s history spans four centuries. The original structure which is now the home’s kitchen predates the American Revolution by more than a century. The present Italianate colonial mansion was built in the 1870s by Philander A. Bowen. Spanning 5,500 square feet with six bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms, the residence retains original details including 13-foot ceilings, exquisite crown moldings, seven working fireplaces, and original hardwood floors in the front hall, parlor, dining room, and three bedrooms. Geothermal heating keeps the home comfortable year-round.

The farm is a fully operational, chemical-free boutique agricultural enterprise ripe for expansion. Under the Morells' management, the farm has operated without the use of pesticides, herbicides, or synthetic chemicals. The deep-well water tests free of agricultural chemicals. The property supports a herd of grass-fed dairy cows, spotted heritage pigs, meat birds, and seasonal turkeys.

Its state-of-the-art artisan cheesemaking facility produces four award-winning raw milk cheeses recognized with medals at the American Cheese Society and the Los Angeles International Dairy Competition. A farm store, Annapolis Farmers Market presence, and mail-order operation provide established revenue channels. The farm also produces permitted raw milk and raw cream, labeled for dogs and cats.
