Phil Foden on target again as Manchester City beat Newcastle United in Premier League

Phil Foden was on target again for Manchester City as the reigning Premier League champions defeated Newcastle United 2-0 at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday.

The England international made it four goals in three games after a mazy run into the Newcastle box ended with his strike hitting the back of the net – albeit via a big deflection off Magpies defender Sven Botman.

Newcastle had began to put City under some serious pressure in the second half only for Pep Guardiola's to break away on a counter-attack and make it two through substitute Bernardo Silva's fine finish.

The victory took City back to within two points of table-toppers Arsenal, although will increase back to five if the Gunners defeat struggling Bournemouth at the Emirates later on Saturday.
