Andy Cole and Alan Shearer had scored 34 goals in the past in the Premier League. Man City are one point ahead of Arsenal on 79 points and have played a game fewer. In another catch-up game, Liverpool beat West Ham United 1-0 (1-0).
Defender Nathan Ake had previously scored the opening goal with a header in the 52nd minute, Phil Foden (85th) made the final score.
Team manager Pep Guardiola gave ex-Bielefeld Stefan Ortega confidence in goal, but Ilkay Gündogan was missing from the starting lineup.
Liverpool goalgetter Mohamed Salah made the decision in favor of the Reds with a penalty converted against former Leverkusen goalkeeper Bernd Leno in the 39th minute.
With this success, coach Jürgen Klopp’s team moved up to four points from fourth-placed record champions Manchester United.
