Match Report
In the opening 15 minutes of the game, Phil Foden gave City the lead with a moment of excellence, beating three players before taking a shot that was deflected in.
Substitute Bernardo Silva then found the back of the net in the second half just moments after coming on as Jack Grealish was barged off the ball and it spilled to Erling Haaland, who flicked it on to the Portuguese midfielder.
