Watford Vs Man City Highlights as Bernardo’s Brilliant Brace Catapults Blues to Top of The League
Manchester City have leapfrogged Chelsea and Liverpool to go to th top of the Premier League.
Manchester City Fc, has moved to the top of the Premier League with a 3-1 win over Watford.
Chelsea’s surprise defeat to West Ham earlier in the day opened the door for City and it was an opportunity they took in style at Vicarage Road.
It took them just four minutes to take the lead after Raheem Sterling nodded in Phil Foden’s cross.
It then looked as if a whitewash was on the cards as Jack Grealish should have had a hat-trick but it was Bernardo Silva who continued his excellent week as he doubled the lead.
The Portuguese grabbed another with a beautiful goal in the second-half, though Cucho Fernandez pulled one back late on.
It mattered little, however, as the Blues eased to victory. There was a further boost as Phil Foden and Kevin De Bruyne both returned to action, too.
