In the 5th minute, Alexis Sanchez took the ball with his back 30 yards out from goal, pondered the shot but spotted Theo Walcott behind Nicholas Otamendi, and Walcott had time to control, compose himself before firing past Claudio Bravo into the net.

A wonderfully-timed run from Leroy Sane and latched on to the ball over the top from David Silva to slide past Petr Cech to get Manchester City back into the game with an equalizer in the 47th minute.

Raheem Sterling stepped inside on his left and rifled a low effort beyond Cech to give the hosts the lead in the 71st minute.
