Pep Guardiola hails Manchester City ‘supermen’ after closing gap to Liverpool
Pep Guardiola hailed his Manchester City “supermen” after they closed the gap to Premier League leaders Liverpool to one point with an unconvincing 1-0 win at Bournemouth.
The champions had to contend with local fireworks, a misfiring Erling Haaland and a second-half onslaught from the hosts before they left the south coast with a 15th victory from their last 17 matches.
Phil Foden’s first-half tap-in proved enough for City, who final action this weekend, but were again not at their fluent best after a narrow 1-0 win over Brentford in midweek.
