WHO'S GOING TO BE YOUR

MAN OF THE MATCH?

Match summary

Manchester City remain unbeaten and returned to the top of the Premier League after a sensational 7-2 win over Stoke City.

Pep Guardiola’s side opened up a three-goal lead within 30 minutes as Gabriel Jesus, Raheem Sterling and David Silva finished off devastating team moves.

Stoke mounted a comeback with two goals in three minutes. Mame Biram Diouf scored a deflected shot from Jese's assist before seeing his header go in off Kyle Walker.

But Kevin De Bruyne produced two clinical passes to assist goals by Jesus and Leroy Sane, either side of a Fernandinho long-range strike, before Bernardo Silva completed the scoring.

Man City go back above Manchester United and have scored 5+ goals in three consecutive home matches. Stoke drop to 15th.
