Man City 3 - 1 Bournemouth
Dec. 1st, 2018 08:16 pmAnother new month, another attempt at blogging but once again no idea what to write about. Same old boring Jack. Samantha suggested I write about today's football match and I think she had a very good point.
I was born and raised in Manchester and have supported Manchester City FC since I was knee high. Today they played, and beat, Bournemouth 3-1 at home in the 2018/2019 Premier League.
That's 'soccer' to any confused Americans reading.
And the Premier League is the top level of the English football league system. Contested by 20 clubs, it operates on a system of promotion and relegation with the English Football League.
Most importantly - we're currently at the head of the table. Today's win gave us a good five point lead.
This was far from a straightforward win for City, with the visitors in the game until the latter stages having pegged back the champions who had initially led through Bernardo Silva's strike.
City were much better after the break and goals from Raheem Sterling and Ilkay Gundogan sealed a 3-1 victory that also extends the Blues' unbeaten Premier League run to 20.
Next up City travel to Watford on Tuesday evening for what looks like a tricky test against the Hornets. Though the Blues have won handsomely on the last two visits, scoring 11 goals in total, this is likely to be a closer game
