Victory moved City into third place with 69 points, above Liverpool on goal difference. Palace were in danger of being overrun and the fleet-footed Leroy Sane forced Hennessey into two good saves. City's second goal arrived two minutes after the break from an unlikely source - Kompany crashing home an unstoppable shot for his first home goal since August 2015. Wales keeper Hennessey was at fault as he let Kevin de Bruyne's weak shot creep inside the post to make it 3-0 on the hour as City forged clear. Sterling's sweetly-struck left-foot shot made it 4-0 before defender Otamendi got on the scoresheet with a diving header from De Bruyne's chipped free kick - only his second City goal.
