Kevin De Bruyne opened the scoring for Manchester City, unleashing a shot from outside the box which took a wicked deflection off Joel Matip.
The goal came after De Bruyne eased past Fabinho, who didn’t react quick enough from a quick Man City free-kick. The deflection off Matip took it away from Allison, who was left with no chance.
