SUBSTITUTION, MAN CITY. Grealish gets the walk of fame to massive crowd applause after a true man of the match performance, followed by a five-second bear hug from his manager on the sideline. Oh, yes… Grealish is replaced by young Palmer, who relishes any game time with this spectacular side.

FULL TIME. MAN CITY 4-1 LIVERPOOL. An astonishing display from City, world-class playmaking and finishing as they wrenched the match away from Liverpool. It looked like were set for a smashing contest, but instead we saw City smashing Liverpool aside and without their giant striker! Magnificent play from Pep's charges… and they seem to really be peaking when it matters most in the season. That was rivetting and we hope you enjoyed following the action, and commiserations to Liverpool fans who couldn't have seen that second half performance coming. Enjoy the rest of your sporting weekend.
