"Manchester City's record in April over the past four years reads: played 23, won 19, drawn four across all competitions. The league title is now in their own hands."
"There were almost 51 minutes gone when Nico O'Reilly scored the opening goal with a close-in header right in front of the City fans. It was almost a free header, goalkeeper still on his line."

"This season has often felt like a prelude to something happening, a pre-narrative. Every time it seems like a decisive moment, City rises to the occasion."
