MANCHESTER, England: Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany said he ignored calls"not to shoot" from his team mates as he fired in from long range to earn his side a crucial 1-0 win over Leicester City in the Premier League on Monday.
"Everyone was saying don't shoot but I've not come this far in my career to be told when I can and can't shoot," Kompany told Sky Sports. City manager Pep Guardiola said he was one of those urging his captain not to shoot but praised the impact Kompany has had on the club."There are players who help us to be who were are today - Joe Hart, Pablo Zabaleta and Vincent Kompany," Guardiola said.
A 14th consecutive league win for City at Brighton and Hove Albion on Sunday will mean they will retain the Premier League title for the first time in the club's history, but Guardiola said the pressure is still very much on his side.
