Phil Foden Hits His Second Hat Trick in City Win

by: Calvin Edwards

It looked like being a frustrating game when, after 20 minutes of City dominance, Neal Maupay put the hosts ahead midway through the first half.

However, Foden grabbed us a highly warranted equalizer on the stroke of half-time before heading City into the lead early in the second half.

His night was complete when he raced through the middle and dispatched a cool finish to seal the three points and ensure he’d be taking the match ball home.

It is the fourth successive Premier League away match in which city has trailed before going on to claim all three points.

Pep Guardiola’s city has now won nine matches in a row across all competitions.

City has 49 points from 22 Premier League games and is breathing down the neck of leaders Liverpool on 51 points from 23 matches.

There was more positive news at the beginning of a hectic February, with Erling Haaland making his first start in almost two months and Manuel Akanji returning to take his place on the bench.

Those are the highlights of yesterday's City match.
