(Reuters) - MANCHESTER CITY 3 HULL CITY 1 Manchester City claimed their first victory in five league games with a comfortable 3-1 victory over Hull City to calm their top-four jitters on Saturday. Hull's Ahmed Elmohamady put through his own goal after 31 minutes to give City the lead. Sergio Aguero made it 2-0 shortly after halftime following a jinking run by Raheem Sterling -- his 10th goal in his last 10 appearances for City. Fabian Delph hammered in City's third before Andrea Ranocchia pulled one back late on. Fourth-placed City moved seven points ahead of fifth-placed Arsenal who have two games in hand while Hull remained two points above the bottom three.
