Joe Hart was fielded against the Romanian side Steaua Bucharest in the Champions League play-off round second leg tie in what may prove to be his final appearance for the club.
Hart kept a clean sheet in the 1-0 victory but it will probably not be enough to keep him at the club.
Manchester City are set to complete the transfer of Claudio Bravo from Barcelona tomorrow according to the Mirror.
We took a look at how City fans reacted to Hart’s emotional farewell on social media.
Joe could not hold back the tears following a show of support from the home faithful.

Joe kissed his badge and gave the fans what could end up being a final salute.
Etihad reverberates to "Stand up if you love Joe Hart". He shakes his head and touches the badge as #mcfc fans stand in salute.

Joe actually put on a pretty impressive display for his final game keeping a clean sheet, completing his passes with a 100 percent accuracy and even had a time for a joke after the game.
Joe Hart when made aware of his 100% pass accuracy: "Wow! Pigs do fly!"
