Manchester City has two goals until the end of the season - to qualify for the Champions League through the Premier League and to win the FA Cup, where they reached the semi-finals.

The former is probably more important for the functioning of the club and it seems that the "citizens" have found a rhythm at the end of the season that is bringing them closer to the aforementioned goal.

Pep Guardiola's team defeated Everton 2-0 at Goodison, taking fourth place in the table from Nottingham Forest at least until Monday. The English team will provide five participants in the European elite next season...

The reigning champion had better chances than Everton, but only achieved triumph in the last ten minutes.

young Nico O'Reilly scored in the 84th minute on a pass from Mateus Nunez, in injury time it is Mateo Kovačić secured three points for the guests, so City have tied two wins in the championship for the first time since the second half of January.

Aston Villa also believes in qualifying for the Champions League, having defeated Newcastle 4-1 four days after a spectacular match against Paris Saint-Germain, and now shares fifth place with Nottingham Forest.

Brentford, after much drama, was better than Brighton (4:2), and there were no winners in the duels between West Ham and Southampton (1:1, the "Hammers" do not know about the triumph from February 27) and Crystal Palace and Bournemouth (0:0).
