No player scored twice for Manchester City in its 2–1 comeback against Bournemouth during the 2026–27 opening weekend.
Manchester City won 2–1 at home on Sunday, 23 August 2026, after Bournemouth took the lead through Marcus Tavernier in the 26th minute. City equalised through Marc Guéhi, and Josko Gvardiol scored the stoppage-time winner. The goals were therefore shared by two different City players.
Rayan Cherki played an important creative role without scoring. Coming off the bench, he assisted both of City’s goals, first from a corner and then with a precise pass. That contribution can make the match seem like a two-goal performance by Cherki, but the goals belonged to Guéhi and Gvardiol.
This question tests the distinction between scoring and assisting. Bournemouth had never led at the Etihad before this match, and City’s comeback came after it had trailed for most of the contest. The correct response is therefore that no City player scored twice.
