Manchester City thrashed Burnley 5-0 at an empty Etihad to ensure Liverpool will not be able to clinch the Premier League title when they face Crystal Palace tonight. However, the match was overshadowed by a banner flown over the stadium at the start of the match reading: "White lives matter Burnley". The disparity of resources between the sides was shown even before kick-off as Burnley boss Sean Dyche could not even fill his bench, while Pep Guardiola was able to make eight changes from a 3-0 win over Arsenal on Wednesday.

Dyche has been left frustrated by the Burnley board's refusal to extend contracts of five players who are out of contract at the end of the month. Phil Foden, 20, made the most of his chance to start for City as he opened the floodgates with a sweet strike from outside the box. "That was my best game in a City shirt," said Foden. "I am just happy how the team are playing at the moment. We're looking sharp."
