Rayan Cherki reduced the deficit with a curling volley into the top corner to revive Manchester City, who were trailing 2-0 at half-time against Nottingham Forest in the 10th round of Premier League fixtures.

The French international, signed last summer from Lyon, had already found the back of the net at City Ground the previous season in different colours. On Saturday, he repeated the feat with a curled strike from the edge of the box that nestled into the far corner — a technical gesture of rare precision in a difficult match context for City.

This goal brings Cherki’s Premier League tally to five this season, and seven across all competitions with Manchester City. At 21 years old, the former Lyon player is confirming his successful integration into Pep Guardiola’s squad, establishing himself as a reliable attacking option in moments when his team needs to turn the tide.
