Man City within 2 points of EPL leader Liverpool after beating Sheffield United

MANCHESTER, England — Manchester City beat Sheffield United 2-0 and moved to within two points of English Premier League leader Liverpool on Saturday. All five trophies won over the past 12 months — the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, European Super Cup and Club World Cup — were on show ahead of kickoff against Sheffield United. The Spain midfielder collected a ball deep in Sheffield United’s half and drove forward to the edge of the box with no opposition player strong enough to stop him. Despite controlling the game, City could not find a second before the break and it was Sheffield United which came close to a leveller.
