On a day when the result of a football match seemed almost irrelevant, Manchester City nevertheless secured an important win against Everton to maintain their place at the top of the Premier League table.
As was the case against Spurs last weekend, City did not put on a vintage display at Goodison Park, yet still found a way to win courtesy of a poacher's finish from Phil Foden in the 82nd minute.
With Liverpool not in league action this weekend due to their involvement in today's Carabao Cup final, defeat would have left City nervously waiting to see if Jurgen Klopp's side would win their game-in-hand to go top of the standings.
