Manchester City 3-1 Watford: Sterling and Aguero on target
Premier League leaders Manchester City returned to winning ways as Watford were brushed aside 3-1 at the Etihad Stadium.
Pep Guardiola’s men had seen their record-breaking run of 18 victories come to an end with a goalless draw at Crystal Palace on Sunday.
However, despite missing striker Gabriel Jesus, who has suffered a serious knee ligament injury, City were too strong for an out-of-form Watford team who have now lost six of the last seven Premier League games.
City needed less than a minute to take the lead, when Raheem Sterling knocked in a cross from Leroy Sane with just 40 seconds on the clock.
