Man City close in on Premier League title after win at Palace

Crystal Palace 0-2 Man City: Sergio Aguero scores as Man City close in on Premier League title after win at Palace (Match Highlights)

Manchester City are on the verge of winning the Premier League title on Sunday after a 2-0 win at dogged Crystal Palace.

Manchester City will win a third Premier League title in four seasons if rival Manchester United lose at home to Liverpool.

After lacklustre first half at Selhurst Park, Sergio Aguero put City ahead with a powerful strike before Ferran Torres made it two with a low drive.

The home side came close to scoring in the first half as Christian Benteke headed wide before city goalkeeper Emerson blocked his close-range effort.

But City opened the scoring when Aguero controlled and blasted into the roof of the net, then Ferran Torres pinpoint strike guaranteed a City win.

It is now a matter of time for Pep Guardiola's side to be crowned champions again after giving up the crown to Liverpool last season.
