Man City 1-0 Everton
35. It’s safe to say that the hosts should now be two-nil.
A great pass was played into the path of Bernardo Silva, who struck the shot first time, looking to find the far corner.
He didn’t catch it well enough as his effort went wide of the target.

30. It’s a strange atmosphere at the Etihad.
After the goal we didn’t see the surge of attack as we are used to seeing from Guardiola’s teams.
As a result, it’s an eerie feeling from home fans not knowing what to expect from the defending champions.

The crowd was sleepy for this early game but City never looked much like their old self.
Guardiola praised Bernardo Silva for his attitude in recent adversity and the Portuguese repaid his boss with the opening goal – squeezing a shot past Pickford with a deflection off Branthwaite.
Just what they needed after losing nine of their last 12 games.

25. Foden slides a pass behind the visitors’ defense for Haaland to run on.
He takes the ball around Pickford but the angle is too tight to get a shot on goal.
The Norwegian has failed to score in City’s last three matches at The Etihad, not something we’re used to seeing from him.
