Premier League: Manchester City Maintain Unbeaten Run With 3-1 Win Over Bournemouth

Manchester City maintain table lead with 3-1 win over Bournemouth at Etihad Stadium, and are now five points clear their rival Liverpool.
The hosts met with a strong Cherries, but Raheem Sterling and Ilkay Gundogan made the day for the defending champions which are yet to conceded a game in 14 Premier League matches.
Bernando Silva wasted no time when Asmir Begovic parried Leroy's effort to his reach and hit the ball in for City's opening goal.
Just before the half time, Cherries equalised the lead through Callum Wilson. The English player headed in Simon Francis' cross from the right wing.
Sterling punished Cherries defense for failing the clear Begovic's parry after Danilo attempted a shot from from inside the area and smashed the ball in. Gundogan completed the victory tapping in Leroy's cross.
Pep Guardiola seemed pleased with his team performance as he said "It was a good time" because they were about to dictate the tune of the game over their opponents.
"We were flat but after we were more aggressive and we changed the game," says Guardiola.
City now lead with 38 points and yet to drop a match just as their rivals Liverpool which trailed with 33 points.
