Kevin De Bruyne scored and gave Manchester City a crucial but barely deserved 1-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers and a lift into third place in the English Premier League on Saturday (May 3, 2025). The Belgian is leaving City at the end of the season and still providing good memories thanks to his goal against a team that won its last six league encounters. With three games left, City are a firm favourite to take one of the Champions League places. Slightly against the run of play, De Bruyne side-footed home a cut back from Jeremy Doku 10 minutes before half-time in his second-to-last appearance at Etihad Stadium.
