Manchester City left it late to defeat Swansea on Saturday by a 2-1 scoreline. The stoppage time winner has been claimed by Yaya Toure but has been credited to Kelechi Iheanacho who deflected the on-target shot into the back of the net. The goal was similar to one credited to David Silva in 2011 against Manchester United, even though Edin Dzeko had lined the effort up on a target before it deflected off Silva's back.
Toure said:
"When you see the action, the ball was going into the net,."
"When you shoot on target I think it is your goal because the intention was to score so can we do? We'll see what the verdict it is but as far as I'm concerned, it's mine!"
"At the beginning of the day we wanted to be back on top of the table and put a little bit of pressure on Leicester and Arsenal who play tomorrow," he said.
"I think today it was very important to win against a difficult team like Swansea. In midweek we were fighting and running a lot against Borussia but I think it was good to win this game.
"We have great players and every one of them are very good individually and we keep going and believing.
"Of course, today we went through some difficulties and the weather was a little bit hard to play in, but we are very happy with the three points."
After a run of five games in 15 days, Manchester City have nine days to get ready for a big clash against Arsenal.
