LONDON: Richard Dunne scored a 23rd-minute winner and Manchester City beat Middlesbrough 1-0 in the English Premier League on Monday night, surviving two shots off the post by Massimo Maccarone with goalkeeper Nicky Weaver beaten. The goal came when Joey Barton's far-post corner sailed perfectly for Dunne, who leapt to drive a header into the roof of the goal. The victory was Manchester City's first in four games and comes a week after it was thrashed 4-0 by Wigan. It kept City unbeaten in five matches at home having yet to concede a goal and improved it to 12th place with 12 points. The loss snapped a two-game winning streak for Middlesbrough, which fell to 15th place with 11 points. ``It was a big result for us today after the disappointment of last week,'' City striker Paul Dickov said. ``We are all a bit embarrassed. It was so important to bounce back and we showed our pride. Everybody wants to play for the shirt.'' AP
