Manchester City narrowly defeated Bournemouth 1-0 with a goal from Phil Foden, reducing the gap behind Premier League leaders Liverpool to just one point on Saturday. Foden found the net from close range in the 24th minute following a good effort from Erling Haaland. Bournemouth seemed capable of equalizing in the second half, but Marcus Tavernier missed two clear chances, and a header by Anis Onal went off target in the dying moments. City has now collected 59 points from 26 matches, just one point behind Liverpool, who face Chelsea in the EFL Cup final tomorrow, Sunday.
