Manchester City climbed into second place with an impressive 3-1 victory over high-flying Bournemouth at the Etihad on Sunday.
Erling Haaland was the star once again, bagging a brace to take his tally to 13 league goals for the season, while substitute Rayan Cherki provided two brilliant assists.
The result confirmed the fitness of both Haaland and Rodri, who returned to the pitch late in the game.
City’s performance was clinical, punishing Bournemouth’s high-energy approach and consigning the visitors to their first league defeat since the opening weekend. The three points put City six points behind leaders Arsenal, ensuring the title race remains firmly contested.
