De Bruyne leads Manchester City comeback, Forest beaten by Everton
MANCHESTER: Kevin De Bruyne inspired a Manchester City fightback from two goals down to beat Crystal Palace 5-2, while Nottingham Forest’s challenge for a place in next season’s Champions League stumbled after a 1-0 defeat by Everton on Saturday. In De Bruyne’s first appearance at the Etihad Stadium since announcing his decade in Manchester will come to an end at the end of the season, the Belgian rolled back the years to save City’s blushes.

Goalkeeper Ederson provided his fourth Premier League assist of the season for James McAtee to make it 4-2 before Nico O’Reilly’s sweet strike rounded off the scoring. Victory lifts Pep Guardiola’s men back into the top four, with the top five in the Premier League this season qualifying for the Champions League thanks to the strong performance of English sides in European competition. Forest remain in third and on course for their first taste of Europe’s elite competition since they were holders in 1980. However, Nuno Espirito Santo’s men have lost their last two games to allow the chasing pack back onto their tails. A forgetful game at the City Ground appeared to be meandering toward a stalemate until Abdoulaye
