Manchester City crush Sunderland 4-1 in EPL

Manchester City ended a six-year wait for a Premier League win at Sunderland with an impressive 4-1 victory on Wednesday for the defending champions.

The visitors, who had lost their last four games at the Stadium of Light, fell behind in the 19th when Pablo Zabaleta's attempted clearance deflected off Connor Wickham and into the net.

Striker Sergio Aguero leveled two minutes later, rolling the ball through defender Sebastian Coates' legs before unleashing a vicious shot past goalkeeper Costel Pantilimon.

City went ahead in the 39th when Aguero found Stevan Jovetic who netted from inside the area.

Zabaleta added a third in the 55th when he lifted the ball over Pantilimon before Aguero hit the fourth in the 71st.
