Josko Gvardiol nets two goals as City edge closer to making history with victory against Fulham.

Manchester City’s Croatian defender Josko Gvardiol was the star of the show as he scored twice to help his team secure a convincing 4-0 victory over Fulham. With these goals, Gvardiol has now scored five times in his last seven matches, showcasing his prowess in front of goal. Phil Foden also got on the scoresheet, taking his tally for the season to 25.

From the start, Manchester City looked determined to overtake Arsenal at the top of the Premier League table. Gvardiol opened the scoring on 13 minutes, finishing off a slick move involving Kevin de Bruyne. Fulham struggled to make any impact and were lucky not to concede more goals before half-time, with Manuel Akanji missing a simple chance.

City remained in control throughout the match and Foden sealed the victory with a low shot from 16 yards out. Gvardiol then added his second goal of the game, expertly sliding home a cross from Bernardo Silva. Fulham’s misery was compounded in stoppage time when Issa Diop was sent off, and substitute Julian Alvarez converted the resulting penalty.

With this win, Manchester City now sit two points clear of Arsenal at the top of the table with just two matches remaining. Fulham, on the other hand, remain in 13th place.

The focus now shifts to Arsenal’s crucial match against Manchester United on Sunday. However, the real test for Manchester City comes on Tuesday night when they face Tottenham. If they can avoid any slip-ups against a team they have struggled against in the past, they will head into the final day of the season with their fate in their own hands.

While few expect Manchester City to falter, Arsenal fans will be hoping for a dramatic twist and maybe even a favor from Tottenham. Will there be more drama or will it be another procession for Manchester City? Only time will tell.

Josko Gvardiol was named the player of the match for his outstanding performance. The Croatian defender has taken some time to adapt to English football but is now proving his worth as one of the best young defenders in the world. His goals have caught the eye, but his solid defensive work has also been invaluable to Pep Guardiola’s team.

Overall, it was a dominant display from Manchester City, and their title hopes are looking increasingly likely.
