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

England are on the lookout for an “X factor” player to re-energise their Cricket World Cup campaign after Reece Topley was ruled out of the tournament with a broken finger peraplay

Topley’s long-running injury curse struck again during Saturday’s record defeat at the hands of South Africa in Mumbai, with the in-form left-arm seamer fracturing the index finger of his bowling hand attempting to block a drive peraplay

The 29-year-old’s initial anguished reaction gave a heavy hint that he was in trouble and, although he bravely returned to the attack with taped up digits, follow-up scans have confirmed the break peraplay

England, who are in strife after three heavy defeats in their first four games, will send for a replacement but have yet to decide who will step in for their leading wicket taker peraplay

Durham’s Brydon Carse is a strong candidate and would offer a handy pace option in the middle overs as well as strong lower-order batting, while Lancashire’s Luke Wood matches Topley’s description as a left-arm new-ball specialist peraplay

But like-for-like substitutes are not mandatory and head coach Matthew Mott admitted England would assess every option peraplay

Big-hitting opener Jason Roy, who was named in the provisional squad then cut for Harry Brook at the last moment, represents the most intriguing of all potential options peraplay

He was widely believed to have played his last game after being left out on the eve of the tournament, and turned down a place in subsequent squad to face Ireland, but England have consistently said he remained in contention as a reserve peraplay

The versatile Ben Duckett is also on the list of possibles, while spin bowling all-rounders Rehan Ahmed and Will Jacks would represent an obvious investment in the future of a side in need of renewal peraplay

Asked if England would be looking for a pace bowler in Topley’s absence, Mott said: “That’s a good question peraplay

We’ll have to sit down and have a look at that peraplay

“We’ll have to look at the upcoming games (and see) if there is an X factor player we can look at peraplay

“That’s why we were very keen not to name the replacements and reserves peraplay

It leaves an open mind for what we’re going to go with peraplay

”Rob Key, the managing director of England men’s cricket, is currently with the squad and travelled with them from Mumbai to Bengaluru on Sunday peraplay

He will also have a big say in the final decision, joining Mott and captain Jos Buttler peraplay

Announcing Topley’s exit from the campaign, the England and Wales Cricket Board said: “Scans in Mumbai on Saturday, after the match at the Wankhede Stadium, revealed the full extent of the injury peraplay

Topley will return to the UK in the next 24 hours peraplay

“He will work closely with the England and Surrey medical teams in respect of his rehabilitation peraplay

A replacement will be announced in due course peraplay
