On the road to the Champions League.

On Tuesday evening, Manchester United hosted Bournemouth as part of Matchday 37 of the Premier League.

For Kevin De Bruyne's last home game, the Citizens got off to a great start with an absolutely magnificent goal from Omar Marmoush.

Despite a big miss from the Belgian playmaker just moments earlier, Bernardo Silva doubled the lead before halftime.

In the second half, Mateo Kovacic and Lewis Cook were sent off in quick succession, before Nico Gonzalez scored the third goal to make it 3-0.

The celebration was complete for Manchester City when Rodri made his return to competition eight months after his injury. The 2024 Ballon d'Or winner replaced Erling Haaland ten minutes before the end.

Late in the match, Bournemouth still managed to pull one back thanks to Daniel Jebbison.

With this victory, Manchester United climbs back onto the podium and regains a two-point lead over their closest rivals ahead of the season's final round of matches.
