Manchester City kept their title hopes alive as they ousted Wolves by a comfortable 2-0 victory at Molineux. Argentine striker Sergio Aguero gave City the vital lead with an excellent finish in the first half. Clichy fired a magnificent ball behind the last defender for Aguero, who controls, gathers himself and slots past De Vries.
In the 74th minute, the visitors struck again. A quick free-kick was worked to Tevez, who played a magnificent pass to Nasri, and the French international had enough time to take a splendid touch and place the ball low into the far corner.
With this win, the Citizens are only one win away from United and that means the top-two clash next Monday at the Etihad Stadium is shaping up to be the most significant moment in the title race.
However, the visitors took seventeen shots out of which only five were on target. Although, the Citizens have won the match but still this reflects their low accuracy rate. Mancini is absolutely aware of the fact that that goal difference could play a vital role in the end of the season.
On the other side, another defeat for Terry Connor's men means they will be playing Championship football next season. They are at the last of Premier League points table with only 23 points.
