Manchester City asserted their dominance with a commanding 3-1 victory over Burnley in a crucial Premier League fixture, leveling points with Arsenal to secure the second spot in the title race.
Julian Alvarez played a pivotal role, scoring two goals in the first half. The first, a header from Matheus Nunes' cross, and the second, a clinical finish from Kevin De Bruyne's precise pass after a clever free-kick routine.
After the break, Phil Foden's run set up Rodri, who calmly extended City's lead with a composed finish. Despite Burnley's late consolation goal by Ameen Al-Dakhil, City secured the win, preparing for their next clash against Brentford, while Burnley, in 19th place, seven points from safety, will host Fulham on Saturday.
