Manchester City scored an epic victory against Brentford on Monday night, and they owe it all to Phil Foden. The 23-year-old midfielder was on top of his game and scored his second Premier League hat-trick to lead Man City to a confident 3-1 victory. The first half of Monday’s match was quite disastrous for Man City, and they found themselves trailing behind Brentford after Neal Maupay gave his side an early lead. Foden turned things around in first-half stoppage time, equalizing the score, and helped Man City gain momentum in the second half. As Brentford's defense cracked, two more goals followed, and Foden single-handedly led Man City to their latest 3-1 win. Man City boss Pep Guardiola praised Foden after the match and described him as an exceptional player. "I think Phil is playing ... the most [influential] season for the team in terms of goals, assists. How he played simple, how he can be more aggressive. He has the pleasure to score the goals and the threat when he's close to their box. Always he is there,” said Guardiola. Man City’s Premier League ranking significantly improved after the latest string of victories, and they’re just two points behind leaders Liverpool.
