He put his foot through the ball when needed and was tidy with his ball distribution.<\/p>\n

Gvardiol gave a good account of himself defensively and won a few aerial duels as well.<\/p>\n

LB: Nico O\u2019Reilly \u2013 7.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He came back to defend when required, but offered very little going forward.<\/p>\n

CM: Bernardo Silva \u2013 7\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Silva earned possession back once and made two promising runs with the ball.<\/p>\n

CM: Nico Gonzalez \u2013 7\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He anchored the midfield with conviction and made two good runs with the ball.<\/p>\n

CM: Tijjani Reijnders \u2013 7\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Reijnders was a positive influence at both ends of the field.<\/p>\n

RAM: Rayan Cherki \u2013 8\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He was a constant menace in the final third and ended the game with an assist to his name.<\/p>\n

LAM: Phil Foden \u2013 8.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Foden caused a lot of headaches for his marker and managed to score in the 69th minute.<\/p>\n

ST: Erling Haaland \u2013 8.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He was a real handful for the opposition defenders and did well to score twice for Man City this afternoon.<\/p>\n
