MANCHESTER City went top of the Premier League on goal difference after a narrow 2-0 win against Everton. Aymeric Laporte opened the scoring deep in first-half injury time with a header from a David Silva free-kick.

Everton were much improved from the home defeat to Wolves but City showed a grit to get over the line, Gabriel Jesus came off the bench to score with one of the last kicks of the game to wrap up another victory.
