Manchester City beat Brentford
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola says the Premier League title race is far from over despite
seeing his side end 2021 eight points clear at the top of the table after victory over Brentford.
With Chelsea being held to a 1-1 draw by Brighton earlier on Wednesday and Liverpool losing 1-0 to Leicester the day before,
City capitalised by seeing off a spirited Brentford side.
The win was City’s 10th in a row and leaves them in a commanding position at the top.
The previous two occasions City rounded off December in first place in the Premier League – in 2011-12 and 2017-18 – they went on
to win the title.
Brentford, meanwhile, remain 14th with 20 points – nine clear of the relegation zone as they look to ensure a second season
in the top flight.
