Man City 5-0 Newcastle: Man City three clear of Liverpool in title race
Manchester City secured a fourth Premier League win in a row with the help of Rodri's sixth goal of the season
Chris Wood wasted a glorious early chance for Newcastle to add to City's nerves and his side paid the price when Raheem Sterling headed Pep Guardiola's team in front after 19 minutes. He not only directed a tame header straight at Ederson but arguably robbed Joelinton of an even better opportunity as the Brazilian lurked behind him.
The closing stages were played out as a formality with City in total control, the only cloud on their day the half-time substitution of key defender Ruben Dias. City have their destiny in their own hands, with away games at Wolverhampton Wanderers and West Ham United to come before a final-day home game against Aston Villa.Newcastle are a club fuelled by high finance and huge ambition after their Saudi Arabian-based takeover but this was another chastening lesson in the scale of the gulf between where they are and where they want to be.
