Manuel Pellegrini's City team beat Leicester 2-0 tonight
City lost 2-1 to Liverpool at the weekend to fall further behind Chelsea in the Premier League title race.
But they returned to winning ways with goals from David Silva and James Milner against the Foxes.
And Pellegrini was delighted with the result.
I don t need to win the title every year - Pellegrini [AMBIENT]
He said: "It's been a difficult week but from the beginning we tried to dominate. It was very important to score our first goal when we did but we had more chances in second half and we improved.
"At 1-0 you are one ball away from drawing the game. It's very important to play well but the most important thing is to win."
Chelsea, meanwhile, beat West Ham 1-0 at Upton Park.
