A dubiously awarded second-half penalty from Sergio Agüero was enough for Manchester City to record a 1-0 win over West Ham at the Etihad Stadium

As a measure of what an unexpectedly difficult night this was for Manchester City, it was the first time all season they have failed to score twice or more in any game at their own ground. No other side has managed that kind of record over a 15-game period in the top division since Tottenham in 1965 and, in the case of Pep Guardiola’s team, don’t forget that their previous assignment here involved a 6-0 rampage against Chelsea.

Well Man City are just as capable of getting a contentious penalty as much as anyone else just as they are capable of giving away a contentious penalty along with all the other contentious decisions in football. Was such a one sided affair in terms of quality.

The only contentious thing about it was that it wasn't awarded to a London club.
