Manchester City ace Phil Foden scored a sensational solo goal in the 75th minute of City’s FA Cup clash against League Two minnows Newport County.
The 18-year-old picked up the ball in his own half before tricking his way past one Newport player and driving towards goal, the England youth international then bamboozled a helpless Newport defender with some silky step-overs before firing a shot towards goal.
The keeper managed to get a hand to the ball but couldn’t stop it from hitting the back of the net.

Foden will be hoping that his well-taken goal today will lead to more playing opportunities for the Citizens, given that Pep Guardiola’s side are still in the running to win everything – the youngster could get another chance to sparkle soon.
