Manchester City Continue Unbeaten Run with Dominant VictoryManchester City Continue Unbeaten Run with Dominant Victory Manchester City extended their unbeaten streak to 11 matches across all competitions with a resounding 4-0 victory over Bournemouth at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday. The reigning Premier League champions were in complete control from the outset, dominating possession and creating numerous chances. Ilkay Gündogan opened the scoring in the 19th minute, capitalizing on a defensive error to strike with a powerful shot. City continued to press for more goals and their dominance was rewarded in the first half hour when Kevin De Bruyne doubled the lead with a sublime free-kick that curled into the top corner. Bournemouth offered little resistance and City extended their advantage in the second half. Erling Haaland added a third goal in the 54th minute, tapping in a cross from Gündogan. The Norwegian striker was involved in the fourth goal as well, assisting Phil Foden, who slotted home from close range to make it 4-0. City’s defense was equally impressive, keeping Bournemouth at bay for the entire match. Bournemouth managed just one shot on target and only had 27% possession. The victory maintains City’s position at the top of the Premier League table, with 29 points from 12 matches. They remain three points clear of Arsenal and have now opened up an eight-point gap over third-placed Manchester United. Pep Guardiola was delighted with his team’s performance, saying: “We were excellent from the first minute to the last. We controlled the game, created chances, and defended well. It was a complete performance.” City will now turn their attention to the Champions League, where they will face Sevilla on Tuesday. They will then return to Premier League action next weekend with a trip to Fulham.
