On November 2, 2019, Manchester City faced Southampton in a Premier League match that saw the Citizens come from behind to secure a 2-1 win.

Southampton took the lead in the 13th minute through James Ward-Prowse, who capitalized on an error by Ederson to make it 1-0.

Despite dominating possession in the second half, City struggled to break down Southampton's defense until the 70th minute, when Kyle Walker drove in a low cross to Aguero, who tapped in on his first touch.

With less than five minutes left, Southampton's resistance was finally broken as McCarthy's poor clearance fell kindly to Walker, who tucked the ball home to make it 2-1.

City held on to seal the victory and earn all three points, keeping pace with league leaders Liverpool.
