Premier League!! Iheanacho’s Man City Beat Burnley 2-1 To Keep Title Hopes Alive (Read)
Manchester City moved back into the top four of the Premier League with a 2-1 victory over Burnley despite having Fernandinho sent off in the first half.
City, who started with Sergio Aguero and David Silva on the bench, struggled in the early stages at the Etihad Stadium and were on the back foot when Fernandinho was shown his third red card in six matches for lunging in two-footed on Johann Berg Gudmundsson in the 32nd minute.
Pep Guardiola called for Aguero and Silva at half-time and he got a response from City, who took the lead thanks to a rare Gael Clichy goal in the 58th minute.
Aguero then doubled his side’s advantage four minutes later, but it was a nervy ending for City after Ben Mee pulled a goal back 20 minutes from time.
Claudio Bravo made a fine late save from Michael Keane to prevent Burnley snatching a point as City held on for three valuable points that moves them back up to third on goal difference ahead of Arsenal and Tottenham, who play on Tuesday and Wednesday respectively.
