Former Manchester United defender Gary Neville has hailed Manchester City for the way they have responded to the challenge of taking on Liverpool in pursuit of the Premier League title.
After Liverpool beat Newcastle 1-0 in Saturday's lunchtime kick-off, City responded in the perfect manner just a few hours later, beating Leeds 4-0 at Elland Road. Rodri gave City a first-half lead, before Nathan Ake, Gabriel Jesus and Fernandinho inflicted further misery on the Yorkshire club.
The victory moved City one point back ahead of Liverpool with four games left to play, with neither side showing any signs of taking their foot off the gas in pursuit of the title. City will be playing catch-up as far as their next two league games are concerned, with Liverpool taking to the pitch a day earlier on both occasions.
