Champions Manchester City narrow the gap on Premier League leaders Liverpool with victory over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.

Manchester City must be more clinical - Pep Guardiola

Setting up without any recognised centre-backs - midfielders Fernandinho and Rodri lining up centrally between wing-backs Joao Cancelo and Benjamin Mendy - the visitors launched wave after wave of attack but were initially frustrated by Hennessey. Offering Guardiola much food for thought, Jesus has now scored in each of his last seven starts for City - and 21 times in his last 20 games when starting in all.

Indicative of the impressive, yet somewhat under-the-radar, start Palace have made to this campaign, Roy Hodgson's side began this match with the potential to leapfrog their opponents in the table and climb into the top four after nine games. Hennessey touched the ball more than any of his team-mates in the opening half an hour, his initial invincibility suggesting his side could add to their tally of three clean sheets in four home matches this term.

On goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey's performance:"He was excellent, absolutely excellent. I was pleased because he's had to wait for his chance because Vicente Guaita has been so good. He has been working hard in the background to show us he's still a good goalkeeper and he showed us that today."Manchester City have won 12 of their 14 away Premier League games in 2019 - at least three more than any other club.
