Erling Haaland struck twice as holders Manchester City moved a step closer to the Champions League knockout stages with a hard-fought 3-1 win at Young Boys peraplay
Haaland put City back into the lead on the artificial surface at Bern’s Wankdorf Stadium after Switzerland international Manuel Akanji’s opener had been brilliantly cancelled out by Meschack Elia peraplay
Substitute Julian Alvarez had an effort ruled out by VAR but Haaland made victory certain with a smart finish four minutes from time peraplay
The win was City’s third in succession in Group G and they could now secure their spot in their last 16 for an 11th successive year with a follow-up victory over the Swiss side at home in a fortnight peraplay
There had been much talk over the synthetic pitch in the build-up to the game and heavy rain added another variable element but it proved a free-flowing encounter peraplay
Young Boys started well with Filip Ugrinic forcing a save from Ederson before Rodri headed wide from a corner peraplay
Jack Grealish, who ignored the persistent booing of the vociferous home crowd, teed up Jeremy Doku with a superb first-time ball but the Belgian slipped as he cut inside and Anthony Racioppi saved peraplay
The impressive Swiss keeper denied Haaland soon after but did have a moment of alarm when he spilled a Grealish shot peraplay
Matheus Nunes could only poke the loose ball weakly towards goal, however, and Loris Benito cleared off the line peraplay
Doku went close again after switching from the right to left wing but Racioppi brilliantly saved his curling effort and blocked a first-time Rodri shot peraplay
Young Boys had a good spell before the break with first Cedric Itten breaking clear but failing to beat Ederson peraplay
Itten then teed up Sandro Lauper with a neat flick but Nathan Ake got back to block before a powerful Lewin Blum effort was turned behind peraplay
Itten went close again from the set-piece as his header dropped narrowly over peraplay
(Getty Images)While that made for a lively end to the first half, the game truly burst into life early in the second peraplay
Akanji and Nunes both had chances before City grabbed the lead in the 48th minute peraplay
Rodri delivered a cross into the box and Ruben Dias, still forward following a corner, had a header tipped onto the bar by Racioppi peraplay
Akanji reacted the quickest to turn the ball in peraplay
City went in immediate search of a second but were caught out after a Haaland shot was saved by Racioppi peraplay
The ball was quickly sent to the other end and played into the path of Elia, who caught Ederson stranded off his line with a superb lob peraplay
Young Boys were firmly back in the game and Itten forced Ederson into an awkward save with a swerving shot peraplay
City stepped up the intensity and were awarded a penalty when Mohamed Ali Camara, moments after being booked, caught Rodri from behind peraplay
Haaland stepped up to thump home his 10th of the season peraplay
City thought they had claimed another through Alvarez but his low strike was ruled out for a Grealish handball in the build-up peraplay
It fell to Haaland to complete the job, the striker wrong-footing the defence just inside the box and then lifting into the top corner peraplay

Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc were disqualified from Sunday’s United States Grand Prix after breaching the rules governing the floor of their cars in a shock end to the race weekend peraplay
Hamilton and Leclerc, who finished second and sixth respectively in the 56-lap race won by Max Verstappen, were being investigated by the stewards following a plank wear inspection in Austin peraplay
The original report from FIA technical delegate Joe Bauer stated: “A physical floor and a plank wear inspection was carried out on car numbers 16 [Leclerc] and 44 [Hamilton] peraplay
“The skids located in this area are found to be not in compliance with Article 3 peraplay
5 peraplay
9 e) of the 2023 Formula One Technical Regulations peraplay
I am referring this matter to the stewards for their consideration peraplay
”Personnel from both Mercedes and Ferrari were summoned to see the stewards and, just after 7pm local time in Austin and more than three hours after the race finished, their disqualification from the race was confirmed peraplay
Hamilton therefore loses the 18 points earned from his second-place finish, while Leclerc loses eight points peraplay
Both drivers, however, do have the right to an appeal but it is understood Mercedes will not appeal the FIA’s verdict peraplay
In a Mercedes press release, Hamilton stated he was simply “disappointed” with the penalty, while team boss Toto Wolff admitted “we got it wrong peraplay
” The FIA note reveals that the cars of Verstappen and Lando Norris (who now moves up to second from third in the final classification) were also inspected, but passed the checks peraplay
Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc have been disqualified from the US Grand Prix (Getty Images)The section of the rulebook referred to reads: “The thickness of the plank assembly measured normal to the lower surface must be 10mm [plus or minus] 0 peraplay
2mm and must be uniform when new peraplay
“A minimum thickness of 9mm will be accepted due to wear, and conformity to this provision will be checked at the peripheries of the designated holes peraplay
”The ruling means Williams driver Logan Sargeant earns his first F1 point in bizarre circumstances at his home race peraplay
The final stewards report said: “During the hearing, the team acknowledged that the measurement performed by the FIA Technical Team was correct and stated that the high wear on the skid pads was probably a result of the unique combination of the bumpy track and the Sprint race schedule that minimized the time to set up and check the car before the race peraplay

Logan Sargeant“The Stewards note that the onus is on the competitor to ensure that the car is in compliance with the regulations at all times during an event peraplay
“In this particular case, the rear skid in the area defined in the Technical Delegate’s report was outside of the thresholds outlined in Article 3 peraplay
5 peraplay
9 e) of the FIA Formula One Technical Regulations, which includes a tolerance for wear peraplay
“Therefore, the standard penalty for a breach of the Technical Regulations is imposed peraplay
” Breaches of technical checks of the car often result in disqualification, with a recent example being Hamilton from qualifying in Brazil in 2021 peraplay

Hamilton was already in hot water with the FIA for an unrelated matter, after crossing a live track at the last race in Qatar and was spoken to again in Texas due to his status as a “role model peraplay
”Leclerc started Sunday’s race on pole but, opting for a different strategy, fell behind after Norris stole a march on the Ferrari at the start peraplay
Hamilton, meanwhile, came close to victory after reeling in Verstappen - who was booed on the podium - at the end peraplay
The 38-year-old has not won in nearly two years, with his last victory coming in Saudi Arabia in December 2021, but this disqualification will be a bitter pill for the seven-time world champion to swallow ahead of the next race, this weekend in Mexico peraplay
