City Come From Behind To Beat Everton

Dec 28, 2023

Man City are back into the EPL top four, after a come-from-behind 3-1 win over Everton this morning.

The champions are now five points behind leaders Liverpool, with a game in hand.

However, City’s win may have come at a price, after defender John Stones had to be taken off this morning with an ankle problem.

The player will require further tests…although manager Pep Guardiola says Stones’ injury does not look good.

Elsewhere, Chelsea needed an 89^th minute penalty…to come away as 2-1 winners over Cystal Palace.

While Wolves overcame Brentford 4-1.
