Full time: Manchester City 1-0 Brentford

And there’s the whistle! It wasn’t the most pleasant work, but Manchester City have cashed in the game they’ve had in hand since December for a full three points, leapfrogging Arsenal and moving them within one point of Premier League leaders Liverpool.

City have completed the league double of Brentford with tonight’s win, returning the favour from a year ago.
