Vincent Kompany leaps to score against Manchester United
Manchester City reclaimed control of the Premier League title race as
Vincent Kompany's header gave them victory over rivals Manchester
United, reports the BBC.
Kompany rose highest to head home David Silva's corner at the end of a
first half that had seen United frustrate the home side with a defensive
display.
United were more positive after the break but City remained resolute.
City now lead United courtesy of their eight-goal superior goal difference with two games remaining in the season.
The win caps a remarkable comeback for City, whose title bid appeared
to be over at the start of this month when a defeat at Arsenal left them
eight points behind their fierce local foe at the top of the table.
It now promises to be a gripping final two weeks in the Premier League
with City next travelling to Newcastle before hosting QPR and United
facing Swansea at Old Trafford ahead of a final-day trip to Sunderland.
