Manchester City v West Bromwich Albion

Manchester City strengthened their UEFA Champions League prospects after completing a 3-1 victory over West Bromwich Albion.

Goals by Gabriel Jesus, Kevin De Bruyne and Yaya Toure ensured Pep Guardiola's side sit in third place, two points ahead of Liverpool, and three of fifth-placed Arsenal, with one match remaining.

City started strongly with Ben Foster saving Aleksandar Kolarov’s 14th-minute free-kick and Leroy Sane driving wide, but were ahead on 27 minutes when De Bruyne set up a tap-in for Jesus.

Two minutes later Jesus turned provider for De Bruyne to bury a first-time shot.

On 57 minutes Yaya Toure exchanged passes with Sergio Aguero and finished with assurance.

Hal Robson-Kanu grabbed an 87th-minute consolation, but Tony Pulis's side drop to ninth, while a win for City against Watford on Sunday will ensure they finish the season in third.
