On the weekend, in the Premier League's thirty-fifth round, Man City traveled to face Wolves.
To better prepare for next week's second leg of the Champions League semifinal against Barcelona, Guardiola did not bring his strongest lineup south this time. Many of the players who had taken part in the first leg, including Su Dong, were all left in Manchester.
Against Wolves, who had essentially secured one of the relegation spots, Man City really had no need to make a huge show of force.
The match was somewhat eventful, mainly during the first half hour. Man City created numerous chances, but neither Agüero nor Džeko managed to take advantage of them, leaving the team unable to score for quite some time.
Later, Leighton Baines made a late run and delivered a brilliant pass. With Agüero unmarked near the edge of the six-yard box, he sent the ball into the bottom corner of the Wolves goal.
After the sides switched ends in the second half, Džeko played a through ball in the seventy-fourth minute. Hazard broke into the penalty area one-on-one and scored again, sealing the victory for Man City.
Thanks to goals from Agüero and Hazard, Man City defeated Wolves two-nil away from home.
After losing this relegation battle, Wolves were relegated with three rounds still remaining.
With this victory, Man City moved one step closer to an unbeaten season.
While Man City narrowly defeated Wolves two-nil away from home, El Clásico was also setting Barcelona's Camp Nou alight in Spain, with Barcelona hosting Real Madrid.
Both teams attached great importance to the match. Real Madrid currently had a four-point lead over Barcelona, and if they won this game, the destination of this season's La Liga title would essentially be beyond doubt.
Barcelona, meanwhile, hoped to turn the situation
