Manchester City staged a comeback to defeat Everton 3-1 in their Premier League match, closing the gap to five points behind leaders Liverpool. After a goal from former City player Jack Harrison, the champions were down 1-0, but Phil Foden tied the score in the 53rd minute before Julian Alvarez converted a penalty to give City the lead. Bernardo Silva sealed the victory with a goal in the closing minutes. The win comes as a relief for City, who had only won one of their previous six league games. They now sit in fourth place with a game in hand over Liverpool.
In other Premier League matches, Chelsea secured a 2-1 victory against Crystal Palace with a late penalty goal from Noni Madueke, boosting morale at Stamford Bridge after a difficult year. The Wolves also had a convincing win, defeating Brentford 4-1.
City manager Pep Guardiola expressed his belief in his team's abilities and emphasised the importance of maintaining high standards. He acknowledged the pressure that comes with the expectation of results but praised his players for showing their special qualities. Guardiola remains optimistic about City's chances, despite their recent struggles.
Meanwhile, Arsenal, who finished as runners-up last season, are two points behind Liverpool and will face West Ham in their upcoming match.
