CITY SHOW WORLD CLASS

Pep’s stars still title jet-setters

- ANDY DUNN

THEY celebrated in front of their delirious travelling fans as though they had just won a World Cup or something.

Which, of course, they have. But this victory, this comeback, this battling triumph against a team with 10 points to prove, might just have meant more to Manchester City.

Because make no mistake, if Pep Guardiola’s side had not recovered from Jack Harrison’s first-half goal, their hopes of another Premier League title would have suffered a crucial blow.

Instead, this win – sealed by goals from Phil Foden, Julian Alvarez and Bernardo Silva – might yet give their title defence the impetus it needed.
