Man City ace De Bruyne pleased with his matchwinner: You hope to hit it clean

Manchester City ace Kevin de Bruyne was happy to prove the matchwinner at Leicester City.

De Bruyne's free-kick proved the only goal of the game.

He said, "When you shoot like that there is a lot of risk and you try to hit is clean as possible.

"You don't have much time to see it but you hope it's clean. Then it is nice when it goes in. You know you've hit it well and know when it goes over the wall it has a chance."

On the importance of being top of the Premier League, De Bruyne added: "It is just trying to win our games before the World Cop and then we've had a really good start to the season. After the World Cup there is a long way to go, we don't know what happens, but we try to win game by game and stay at the top of the league."
