It was one if the most pulsating evenings we’ve had at the Etihad.
City, seven points adrift of leaders Liverpool, needed a win to remain in title contention.
Guardiola had admitted as much in his pre-match press conference, saying: “The reality is clear. We are seven points down, so it is the second round of games and I have a feeling there is a big opportunity for us to reduce the gap.
“People are asking what we will do if we lose, but we are going to try to win the game, be there and have a chance to fight for the Premier League.”
And in a nerve-jangling encounter between the two best teams in the country, City produced a magnificent display to win 2-1 and move to within four points of Liverpool, kick-starting a run of results that would see us win the Premier League title for the second successive season.
