Premier LeagueCrucial victory for Manchester City. The Citizens took it in a difficult match with the smallest difference in Southampton. Kevin De Bruyne provided the assist with Sterling’s only goal. City moves up to fifth place.
Another decisive Kevin De Bruyne at Manchester City. The Red Devil provided a good assist for Sterling after fifteen minutes, who could extend freely in goal. Assist number 96 for KDB at City and the seventh of the season. A minute earlier, a goal by Rodrigo had already been rejected for offside. Ten minutes after the goal, De Bruyne ran into a yellow card.
Danny Ings has been Southampton’s talisman this season and had the greatest chance of bringing The Saints (deserved) alongside. While falling, however, he headed wide. Southampton – just like City – still had enough chances of a goal, but they were no longer.
A vital win over Manchester City. For the Citizens it was the first three point after two draws against fellow city rivals United and West Brom. With 23 points, they are level with United and Everton, in a shared fifth place. Southampton is third with one more point. City has the Champions League places in its sights again.
