Match Report

Manchester City came from behind to win 3-1 at home

 to Leicester City in a vital victory for their slim Premier 

League title hopes.

Leicester took the lead at the Etihad Stadium on 

Saturday through Jamie Vardy's 17th Premier League 

goal of the season.

But champions City showed grit and determination 

despite Leicester's threat on the counter-attack and 

Riyad Mahrez equalised against his old club with a 

deflected drive.

Raheem Sterling won a penalty that Ilkay Gundogan 

converted and Gabriel Jesus struck after the break to 

move City within a point of their second-placed 

visitors, who remain 10 behind leaders Liverpool.
