MANCHESTER, England -- Pep Guardiola has seen Manchester City score goals to win Premier League titles, FA Cups, and the UEFA Champions League, and yet very few have prompted celebrations like his reaction to Matheus Nunes' stoppage-time winner against Aston Villa.
It was Nunes who ghosted in at the back post to tap in Jérémy Doku's cross in the 94th minute to hand City a crucial 2-1 win. The importance was not lost on Guardiola. A draw would have left his hopes of competing in next season's Champions League hanging in the balance.
