“I won four Liga titles in Spain when I was a football player, four in a row, and the fifth was not the same and the sixth was not the same. City regroup and come again. Stones is on his knees in the penalty box before the corner is taken and the referee walks over to Semedo about something that was not quite caught on camera. Lemina gets a booking for saying something to the ref and Julen Lopetegui also gets a yellow card for his protestations. David Coote gives the free-kick to City, though and Wolves are incensed. De Bruyne swings it in but Wolves clear before City get the ball again. Can't say there have been many if any clear chances for City as Wolves get back into the game with a bit more of the ball. There have been three Wolves bookings in the space of four minutes – including for manager Julen Lopetegui. Wolves try and pass it out from the back under a lot of pressure from blue shirts. Mahrez pulls it back to De Bruyne, free on the right corner of the box, sends in a curling cross to the edge of the six-yard box and the big Norwegian is there waiting to nod powerfully in. Wolves were unhappy about a decision that went against them earlier in the phase of play... He was furious with his keeper Jose Sa for twice booting the ball aimlessly upfield and gifting possession straight back to City in quick succession.

Manchester City will hope to close the gap to Premier League leaders Arsenal on Sunday, when they host Wolves at Etihad Stadium.

Beaten only by Manchester United (narrowly, and late on) during the current run, Wolves appear to be back to their defensive best, yet to concede multiple goals in a game under Lopetegui.

Manchester City lead as Rodri finds Mahrez out wide, he tees up Kevin de Bruyne to whip in a peach of a cross and Erling Haaland heads home at the back post. Julen Lopetegui is livid on the sidelines and he is booked for showing his frustration. Hwang closes down Rico Lewis, who is the last man, and the two tussle with Hwang saying he was fouled. 1-0 to the hosts. After a quick look, nothing given. Great counter from City. Great clearance.
