Manchester City Crush Burnley 5-0 with Foden and Mahrez doubles

Burnley’s Czech striker Matej Vydra (C) holds off Manchester City’s Argentinian defender Nicolas Otamendi and Manchester City’s Algerian midfielder Riyad Mahrez (R) during the English Premier League football match between Manchester City and Burnley at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester, north west England, on June 22, 2020.

Manchester City’s Phil Foden and Riyad Mahrez scored two goals apiece as the hosts showed their impressive strength in depth, making eight changes but still crushing a woeful Burnley 5-0 in the Premier League at the Etihad stadium.

The result leaves second-placed City 20 points behind runaway league leaders Liverpool with eight games remaining and Jurgen Klopp’s side cannot now clinch the title with a victory against Crystal Palace at Anfield on Wednesday.

If City win at Chelsea on Thursday then Liverpool could secure their first league crown in 30 years against Pep Guardiola’s side in Manchester on July 2.
