Manchester City's stunning slump continued Saturday with a 2-1 loss to Aston Villa in the Premier League.

Phil Foden pulled a goal back for City in stoppage time, but it wasn’t enough.

City dropped to sixth in the standings — nine points below leader Liverpool, having played two games more.

Villa climbed to fifth.
