The frustration at half-time has turned to jubilation at full-time, those City stars are a happy bunch. Not only have they picked up the three points, but those three goals without reply mean they have really closed the goal difference gap to Arsenal. Just the two points and one goal behind the Gunners. That's not that much, and now the pressure is back on Mikel Arteta's side as they head to east London tomorrow.
This ain't over yet... 18:24FULL-TIME: Man City 3-0 BrentfordBy Harry BamforthA massive win for Manchester City. They had to bide their time, but the man with magic in his boots, Jeremy Doku, set them on their way in the second half. Once that ball hit the net, they never looked back, and it's a healthy victory for the Arsenal hunters. The gap is down to two. 18:23, 94'GOOD SAVE!
Man City 3-0 BrentfordBy Harry BamforthWhy has this sroppage time just kicked off, all of a sudden? This game looked like it was done, but now all the shots are coming in, with Dango Ouattara coming close. He nods toward goal from six yards out and forces Gigi Donnarumma into a fine stop. Shows what I know, eh? 18:20Goal:Man City 3-0 Brentford By Harry BamforthWhat was I saying, again?
Just moments after I claimed nothing else was going to happen, Omar Marmoush makes me look like a silly billy. He combines with Erling Haaland before burying a brilliant effort into the bottom corner. Huge for City's goal difference in this title race. 18:19FIVE added minutesBy Harry BamforthJust five more minutes of misery for Brentford to endure.
I don't see much happening of interest during this stoppage time, but shall see. 18:18, 90'SUBSTITUTION: Man City 2-0 Brentford By Harry BamforthThe whole of the Etihad crowd rises to its feet. They are giving Jeremy Doku a standing ovation, as the man of the evening makes way to be replaced by Savinho. Another special performance from the Belgian. 18:16, 88'YELLOW CARD: Man City 2-0 Brentford By Harry BamforthOh, hello....
It's all kicking off again, and my word, Jordan Henderson is going absolutely mental down there. Matheus Nunes clearly said something to the midfielder, and Henderson is having to be held back by his team-mates. He looks like he wants to throttle him. Both get a yellow, and thankfully no punches are thrown. 18:14, 86'Man City 2-0 BrentfordBy Harry BamforthYep, this game is dusted now.
Brentford have lost what little motivation they had left, and now it feels like the next goal will most certainly be a City one. Well, if there even is another goal. 18:11, 82'WHAT A SAVE! Man City 2-0 BrentfordBy Harry BamforthWowzers! Caoimhin Kelleher, take a bow.
The Irishman has pulled a superb save right out of teh top drawer, to deny Phil Foden. Foden sends a strike hurtling toward the top corner from just eight yards out, and somehow Kelleher reacts to push it over the bar. Amazing reflexes. 18:08, 80'YELLOW CARD: Man City 2-0 BrentfordBy Harry BamforthAbout as clear a booking as you will see. Kristoffer Ajer has no arguments after clarting Omar Marmoush to the floor, and just accepts the yellow.
Not his finest challenge. 18:07, 79'SUBSTITUTION: Man City 2-0 Brentford By Harry BamforthBoos ring around the ground. Why? Because former Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson has just entered the action. He replaces Yehor Yarmoliuk, and well, it's clear the City fans still don't like him for his career at the Reds. 18:06, 78'Man City 2-0 BrentfordBy Harry BamforthIt would take a monumental effort for Brentford to get something from this game now, you'd think.
They aren't going to stop trying, and are straight on the front foot after that second Manchester City goal. That could mean it gets messy at the other end, mind. Key UpdatesTOP STORIES
