Manchester City v Newcastle United Sunday 8th May 2022 - 16:30 BST - Premier League Match Preview and MDT

47'
Causing a Ster
Close from City in the early stages, as Sterling's deflected cross floats just wide of the far post.
The winger skipped away from Targett with an incredible turn of pace, and the Newcastle defender was lucky not to divert the ball into his own net as he tried to recover.

Foul on Jesus
The ball is lumped into the City box from a free-kick, but play is stopped when Longstaff bundles into the back of Gabriel Jesus.
A chance for City to get our foot on the ball in these early stages of the second half.

Defending in numbers
Grealish scampers away from Krafth and cuts back to Gabriel Jesus, but the Brazilian is crowded out before he can pull the trigger.
City are getting into good positions but the visitors are getting bodies behind the ball to frustrate us at every turn.
Allan Saint-Maximin wins a free-kick deep in the Newcastle half, allowing Dubravka to launch the ball forward.

Saint-Maximin effort
Saint-Maximin does brilliantly to work the ball onto his right foot after being played in over the top by Bruno Guimaraes, but scuffs his effort wide of Ederson's near post.
Newcastle have seen very little of the ball in this second 45, but have looked a threat on the counter when they do gain possession.
