Man City fans hail key man after tense Premier League win over Everton

Manchester City fans have been reacting after the Blues' tense 3-1 win over Everton.

City appeared to be on course to drop crucial points in the Premier League title race but Riyad Mahrez's free-kick and Raheem Sterling's late effort secured the win for Pep Guardiola's side.

Gabriel Jesus gave Man City a first-half lead but the scores were level at the break after Dominic Calvert-Lewin's equaliser for the hosts.

It wasn't a vintage performance from Guardiola's side but several key moments in the final 20 minutes swung the contest their way.

Ederson was a stand-out performer in the second half for City as he came up with a handful of key saves.

The Brazilian's interventions proved to be crucial as Mahrez and Sterling scored late on to secure all three points and City fans were quick to praise Ederson post-match.
