The Race Still on for City
Manchester City skipper Vincent Kompany was amongst the
scorers as the Blues recorded their biggest Premier League win since November,
4-0 against Newcastle.
City did a good respond after Manchester United lead by 18
points clear in 15 minutes and they make sure that the race title is still on.
Newcastle as a life lines for City tonight. They can’t revenge the lost 1-3 at
home last year.
The liveliest the home fans got was with Newcastle goalkeeper
Rob Elliot, who from a ridiculously early point was dragging out every dead
ball and free-kick he was asked to take.
As it turned out, the game clicked into gear thanks to a rare
visitors' attack. Vurnon Anita dropped a superb crossfield pass perfectly into
the path of Papiss Cisse, whose first-time effort was well saved at his near
post by Joe Hart.
Crucially though, City had built up some momentum. And when
Gael Clichy squeezed a cross through to the far post, Tevez slid in to turn it
home. This his 17th goals of the season.
Clichy brought an outstanding save out of Elliot, as did Edin
Dzeko, before an intricate bit of passing from Yaya Toure and Samir Nasri
offered Silva the chance to reach the corner of the six-yard box, where he
buried his shot with some aplomb. And the host lead by 2-0.
The Toon Army still cannot wake up from their bad dreams
after Kompany scored City 3rd goals tonight. Looks like the game
already end? No! Because James Perch made goal..for City after he deflected the
shoot from Yaya Toure.
It is all over for Newcastle. FT: City 4-0 Newcastle.
