LONDON (Reuters) - Last season's two-time champions Manchester City cut the gap on leaders Liverpool to two points by beating Aston Villa 3-0 in the Premier League on Saturday. Spanish coach Josep Guardiola's team waited until the second half to score against Raheem Sterling (46), Belgium's Kevin De Bruyne (65) and Germany's Ilkay Gundogan (70). The North have 23 points in second place, two points behind Liverpool, who are in the upcoming game against fourth-placed Tottenham Hotspur last season, who lost in the Champions League final last season with a clean double against the Red.
