"Man Utd" victory marked by A. Sanchez's goal, "Burnley" take points from "Man City" (VIDEO)

In the English Premier League, the 26th round started on Saturday, with several matches already played.

Burnley hosted the league leaders Manchester City. Pep Guardiola's team led for a long time, but couldn't maintain their advantage - Burnley managed to equalize the score 1-1.

The visitors from Manchester took the lead in the 22nd minute - defender Danilo received the ball near the penalty area after a corner and scored a powerful shot, leaving no chance for the opponents' goalkeeper.

In the second half, Man City struggled to create chances, while Burnley played more aggressively in attack.

In the 70th minute, Raheem Sterling had a chance to score, but failed to hit the target from a few meters away. A perfect pass from Kyle Walker put R. Sterling completely unmarked in front of the goal, but the Englishman somehow missed the goal.

Burnley didn't lose momentum after that episode and continued to press the opponents. In the 82nd minute, they finally found the back of the net - Johann Gudmundsson received a great pass from Matthew Lowton and beat Ederson, taking two points away from the visitors.

Manchester City now have 69 points after the draw, while Burnley extended their unbeaten streak and remain in seventh place.

In other matches, Manchester United defeated Huddersfield, scoring two goals. Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez found the back of the net for the Red Devils.

There were also wins for Bournemouth and Brighton, a draw between Swansea and Leicester, and Southampton claimed their first victory since November against West Brom.
