Second-half substitute Phil Foden rounded up the scoring in the last minute of the game to hand City a comfortable 3-0 home win.
Speaking about the game, Raheem Sterling said: “We expected it to be weird, but the message has been to find something inside ourselves, dig deep and I thought the boys kept their composure and fought to the end.” “First 10 or 15 minutes was about getting use to the atmosphere and getting the cobwebs off, and after that we controlled it well. I’ve beaten myself up about not scoring, but I knew I’d get an opportunity and had to take it.”
He also said: “We’ve got to listen to the safety tips, but it’s football. In the last few days, the boys have all tested negative, and a few fist bumps can’t hurt anyone.” The first return of Mikel Arteta to his former side Etihad Stadium was ruined by his trusted defender David Luiz.
