You’d be crazy to think it is over, says Kompany

Palace 0 Manchester City 2

Skipper Vincent Kompany was just as reticent, stating: “You would be crazy to think it is over.”

Handed the opportunity to close the gap in the leaders to three points with a game in hand – and, crucially, a far superior goal difference – Pellegrini’s side produced a performance marked by composure and two excellent first- half goals, the first from Edin Dzeko, the second superbly executed by Yaya Toure to end Crystal Palace’s run of five straight wins.
