Sergio Aguero Fires Man City to Brink of Title
Manchester City will claim the Premier League title if Manchester United fails to win against champions Liverpool on Sunday.
Match Highlights at Selhurst Park
Manchester City secured a 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace on Saturday, moving closer to their third Premier League crown in four years. Sergio Aguero’s brilliant half-volley goal before the hour mark broke the deadlock, followed swiftly by Ferran Torres’s precise low shot, doubling the lead.
Pep Guardiola’s team dominated possession and attacking chances, with Raheem Sterling hitting the woodwork and Joao Cancelo coming close to scoring further.
Title Implications
- City now have 80 points with four games remaining.
- They hold a 13-point lead over Manchester United.
- Manchester United faces Liverpool on Sunday, and a defeat would hand the title to City.
"It was a long time that I hadn’t played 90 minutes," Aguero told the BBC. "The goal was good because maybe we can win the Premier League. Of course, if Liverpool win it’s better."
Even if United draws, they could still theoretically catch City, but their goal difference is much weaker.
Summary: Sergio Aguero’s key goal against Crystal Palace has pushed Manchester City to the verge of Premier League glory, with their nearest rivals needing a perfect result on Sunday to keep the title race alive.
