Man City Slow Leicester’s Title Chase Down With A 3-1 Win

Liverpool remain 10 points clear at the top of the table after an enthralling battle between their two nearest rivals saw Manchester City fight back from a goal down to beat Leicester.

Pep Guardiola’s side stay third despite this impressive victory, a point behind the Foxes and 11 behind the leaders – who now have a game in hand – but this was a timely reminder of how good the defending champions are at their best.

Manchester City had to do it the hard way, falling behind to Jamie Vardy’s superbly taken breakaway goal, but inspired by a magnificent performance by Kevin de Bruyne, they roared back to take the points.

Vardy silenced Etihad Stadium when he raced on to Harvey Barnes’ pass, out-paced Fernandinho and chipped Ederson to score with Leicester’s first effort at goal.
