Manchester City have closed the gap on Liverpool to four points following their comfortable 3-0 away win against bottom team Huddersfield Town in Sunday’s Premier League game.
City needed to win against Huddersfield to keep the pressure on league leaders Liverpool who managed to beat Crystal Palace 4-3 on Saturday, as the title race hots up.
Former Real Madrid star, Danilo, gave City the lead when he scored in the 18th minute.
Danilo’s goal made the Pep Guardiola-tutored side the first across major European leagues to reach 100 goals in all competitions this season.
Raheem Sterling doubled City’s lead in the 54th minute before Leroy Sane wrapped up the victory in the 54th minute.
City, who have now won their sixth straight games in all competitions, have 56 points in the league table.
Huddersfield stay rooted at the bottom on 11 points, 10 points away from safety.
