De Bruyne fires Man City to 1-0 win over Wolves

De Bruyne

Kevin De Bruyne scored to give Manchester City a crucial 1-0 win over Wolves, lifting Pep Guardiola's team to third place in the Premier League on Friday.

De Bruyne side-footed home a cut back from Jeremy Doku 10 minutes before half-time, but the goal surprisingly came against the run of play. Wolves will be aggrieved at not taking something from the game, but were undone by poor finishing.

Pep Guardiola, meanwhile, squashed rumours that he'll take a break from coaching once his contract expires in 2027. "I didn't say I'm leaving at the end of contract, I said when I finish my time here [I'll take a break], be it one, two, three, four, five years." Guardiola said.
