With the three points secured, Pep Guardiola’s side leapfrogs Newcastle United

Manchester City kept their title hopes alive with a narrow but vital 1-0 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers in Matchweek 35 of the Premier League, thanks to a clinical first-half strike from Kevin De Bruyne.

The Belgian maestro found the net in the 35th minute, showcasing his trademark composure and precision in what could be one of his final home performances in a City shirt, as reports swirl about his potential departure at the end of the season.

Saturday’s win marks Manchester City’s fourth consecutive victory and extends their unbeaten run to seven matches — a late-season surge that has reignited their push for a top finish.

With the three points secured, Pep Guardiola’s side leapfrogs Newcastle United to move into third place with 64 points, strengthening their grip on a Champions League qualification spot. Meanwhile, Wolves remain in 13th with 41 points, safely clear of relegation but out of the European conversation.
