EPL: Manchester City brush aside Bournemouth to record sixth straight win

Manchester City defeated Bournemouth 3-1 at the Etihad stadium to continue their impressive winning run.

The Citizens have won their last six matches with scary goals return.

The win against Bournemouth didn’t come easy as the Cherries gave them a lot of problems before City edged it with a little bit of quality in their ranks.

Bernardo Silva gave City the lead in the 16th minute before Calum Wilson restored parity  for Bournemouth on the stroke of half time.

In form Raheem Sterling restored City’s lead in the 57th minute before Gundogan put the icing on the cake in the 79th minute.

Bournemouth defended doggedly but City’s quality was too much for them to  handle.

Manchester City coach, Pep Guardiola described the Victory as a good one after their 2-2 draw against Lyon in the Champions league

“It was a good win. After the Champions League it is always tough. People think it’s easy for us but that is not the truth, so I like to win in this way.

“We were flat but after we were more aggressive and we changed the game. I asked them for more at half-time but the first five minutes was no good, they didn’t listen. But one action from Raheem Sterling changed the game.
