Bad news for Man City despite beating Man Utd at Old Trafford- See details

Manchester City took the driving seat on the Premier League table as they displace Liverpool form the top spot after their 2-0 win over their City rivals Manchester United at the Old Trafford. Despite the fact that Cityzens fans should be in a celebratory mood but this joy has been cut short after the news concerning one of their most important players who got injured in the game.


Manchester City midfielder Fernandinho is unsure of the severity of his knee injury as he prepares to undergo a scan on Thursday. The midfielder is set to have a scan on the injury he suffered in the derby win over United. The Brazil international, 33, came off in the second half of City’s 2-0 derby win over Manchester United that returned them to the top of the Premier League table.


Already without the injured Kevin De Bruyne, City could now lose Fernandinho with four games remaining in their season. Fernandinho said he would have to wait for the results of a scan to know the severity of the injury scare. The last time the former Shakhtar Donetsk and De Bruyne were missing in Guardiola’s side it was a disastrous period as they felt the presence of both players thus dropping points along the line that throw the title race open.


“We will see tomorrow [Thursday]. We are going to make the scan and we will see. I will talk to the doctor and he will make the best decision for everybody,” he said. “When I blocked the shot from Paul [Pogba] I felt my knee. It twisted a little bit. I could continue playing but I came off. That’s what it is.”


Guardiola will be hoping Fernandinho and De Bruyne will be back before their next crucial games as they hope to cement their place on the Premier League table.


City are a point clear of Liverpool with three league matches remaining, the first of which is a trip to Burnley on Sunday. After that, they’ll take on Leicester City before finishing up against Brighton to close the season.


In addition, City face an FA Cup final, where they’ll face Watford in the finale. Meanwhile, Liverpool will face Huddersfield, Newcastle and Wolves to conclude their Premier League campaign.


Do you think Manchester City will be able to cope without Kevin De Bruyne and Fernandinho in their battle to beat Liverpool to the Premier League title? Share your view on this in the comment section below… Thanks

Coronavirus: 'The worst bit is the uncontrollable coughing'

"The worst bit is the uncontrollable coughing," says Andrew O'Dwyer, who is recovering after being infected with the new coronavirus following a skiing trip to Italy in late February. "I've had worse flu, without a doubt - but I wouldn't want to catch it again," he says during his self-isolation at home in south-west London. Despite having type 1 diabetes, Andrew says having the virus "isn't anything to worry about for me personally". He adds that the fever he experienced is "no different to normal flu-type symptoms". "I've not been concerned," he says. The severity of symptoms can vary widely among people. Those who are older and have pre-existing medical conditions (such as asthma, diabetes, heart disease) are more likely to become severely ill and can need hospital treatment. There have been 10 coronavirus-related deaths so far in the UK. Andrew was told the virus wasn't circulating in the resort ...

Babajide made a Stunning Revelation about the Forthcoming Governorship Election in Edo State

Babajide a veteran journalist, while speaking on the popular program “Journalist Hangout” on TVC news Friday August 7, made a stunning revelation about the forthcoming governorship election in Edo state, says all political parties should shown violence because election is not a do or die affair. Babajide while reacting said “ I have to say I have my fears about these forthcoming election, and I hope my fears does not come past. As we can see the shenanigans in Edo state it is now visible that it is no more Oshiomole against Obaseki, it is now PDP against APC which could be devastating in the light of the politics going on now. Obaseki himself divided the APC, because all the lawmakers in Edo state belong to the APC but he divided them by inaugurating some lawmakers, and refusing to inaugurate others. Right now as it stands 17 lawmakers have decided to align with the APC and just 7 lawmakers is with the Governor. For me I think Obaseki should have averted these problem by just issuing a...
