Man City: Pep Guardiola denies early exit clause in contract
Manchester City moved back within 14 points of Premier League leaders Liverpool with a 3-0 victory over Arsenal. The reigning champions blitzed the Gunners with a stunning first-half display, and the defeat leaves Freddie Ljungberg’s side way down in ninth.
Kevin De Bruyne opened the scoring with a stunning half-volley after just two minutes, slamming home Gabriel Jesus’ cut-back beyond Bernd Leno.
The Belgian then set up Raheem Sterling for a simple second before adding another with a brilliant curled finish from outside the area.
De Bruyne was denied a hat-trick by a full-length save from Leno while Arsenal failed to muster a response in the second-half and conceded defeat with little fight.
