    FT: Man City 5-0 Newcastle!!! All over at the Etihad and this was very one sided. Sterling and Laporte gave the hosts a 2-0 lead at the interval and when Rodri got the third in the 61st minute, there was no way back for Newcastle. Foden made it four in the 90th minute and Sterling completed the rout with almost the kick of the game. Thanks for joining us and see you again soon!
