Manchester City moved 10 points clear at the Premier League summit with a 3-1 victory over Everton at Goodison Park on Wednesday evening.

City took the lead just after the half hour mark – Phil Foden’s sweetly struck half volley deflecting in off Seamus Coleman. But Everton were level five minutes later as Lucas Digne’s effort inadvertently clattered off the post, onto the thigh of Richarlison, and into the net.

City regained the advantage just after the hour mark – and in some style – Riyad Mahrez bending a wonderful first time effort from the edge of the box home in off the post. Mahrez then turned provider for City’s third, teeing up Bernardo Silva who sent a fizzing effort into the bottom corner via the gloves of Jordan Pickford.
