Nico O'Reilly scored two goals as City closed the gap on Arsenal at the top of the Premier League table to just two points with a 2-1 victory over Newcastle United at the Etihad Stadium.

In a highly entertaining game on what felt like a seismic evening in terms of this season’s title race, O’Reilly bagged two goals in the first-half, either side of a deflected equaliser from Lewis Hall.

And City held firm in a tense second-half, showing steel and determination to seal a vital three points. 

The result extends our winning home record against Newcastle in the Premier League to a remarkable 17 games.
