Earthquake in Manchester city stadium


Goals from Robert Huth and Riyad Mahrez saw Claudio Ranieri's side send out a title message to their rivals after going six points clear


Before the game, home team were favourites to replace Leicester at the summit, their ambitions were soon dented when Robert Huth handed Leicester a second-minute lead at the Etihad Stadium.
Huth was at the top of his game today as Manuel Pellegrini's team had little to show for sustained periods of
possession, while appearing vulnerable to their opponents' counter-attack.
Much of the pre-match talk from the Manchester City camp revolved around the desire to give Pellegrini a glorious send-off following confirmation that Bayern Munich coach Pep Guardiola will take his job from next season.
Their deeds on the pitch comprehensively failed to measure up, though, and Leicester exploited them mercilessly. 
Riyad Mahrez danced through a shambling defence to brilliantly score his 14th Premier League goal of the season before Huth headed his second, with Sergio Aguero's strike coming too late to deny Leicester a six-point advantage at the top.
The big question, is pep guadiola announcement as Manchester city next manager affecting their performance?
