Manchester City hosted Southampton in the Premier League and Saturday and, though the hosts won, it wasn’t easy for them.

Instead, Southampton battled bravely, holding their own against the Premier League champions and even coming close to scoring.
𒊎In first-half injury time, Cameron Archer got past Ruben Dias, moved onto his left foot and had a go with an effort that crashed off the crossbar.
Southampton also threatened towards the end of the game, which meant the final whistle was met with relief by the Manchester City contingent.
🅘After the game, Citizens midfielder Bernardo Silva was eager to praise the Saints, admitting it was not an easy game for the hosts.
