Manchester City did not make a mistake this time either, Pep Guardiola’s team came within arm’s reach of defending the title after collecting the three points in London, as a guest of Fulham. Manchester wanted to close the essential questions as soon as possible, avoiding the idea that Fulham had a chance against the star team.
In the 13th minute of the match, Josko Guardiol, who scored a bomb goal in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final against Real Madrid, scored an assist from Croatian national team defender Kevin De Bruyne. A few minutes later, however, Guardiola was forced to change, Nathan Aké asked for a change with a pained face, Kyle Walker took his place.
At the beginning of the second half, Phil Foden came to the rebound and shot into the bottom left corner, and in the 71st minute, Guardiol arrived at Bernardo Silva’s pass at perfect pace, scoring his own second goal and his team’s third. The final result was set by Julián Álvarez, who entered the field as a substitute, from the penalty spot.
Manchester City last lost points against Arsenal at the end of March, since then they have won all their league games and taken the lead in the table. Manchester’s advantage is two points against Arsenal, with two rounds to go before the end of the league.
