End of match

End of match

  • 90'
    FULL TIME! An exciting second half sees Manchester City go away with the three points after two second half goals cancel out Ward-Prowse's early goal. A game which City largely dominated and therefore a deserved win for them in the end!
  • 90'
    A lot of controversy as everybody thought the game had finished, so started celebrating, but the ref says not and Guardiola is not happy at all.
  • 90'
    Sergio Aguero is subbed off in added time, but there is controversy as he takes a very long time to walk off the pitch. Otamendi is his replacement
  • 88'
    Aguero goes into the book for arguing with the refererr
  • 87'
    Southampton make an offensive change as they look for the point. Bednarek comes off and is replaced by Adams
  • 85'
    KYLE WALKER!!!!
  • 83'
    For Southampton: Ings comes off for Djenepo, who makes his return from injury and for Manchester City, Phil Foden is Bernardo Silva's replacement
  • 83'
    Corner for City!
  • 82'
    The Argentine Aguero has another try at goal, as City are completely dominating at the moment, but his shot goes wide. Manchester City looking very dangerous
  • 79'
    An indirect free-kick in the penalty area after Alex McCarthy picked the ball up following a restart after the ball had hit referee Lee Mason. It's teed up for De Bruyne, who is inches away from picking out the bottom right corner.
  • 77'
    So close for City, what a save from Bernardo Silva!! Silva receives the ball in the box and looks to shock the visitors again by powerfully having a shot at goal, but the keeper is alert to the danger and gets a hand to it to help it over the bar. Corner
  • 74'
    This forces Southampton to make their first change, as the injured Valery is subbed for Danso
  • 73'
    Valery down injured, looks like a problem in his leg. He is aided off by the medics
Goal
Goaaaaaal!
de Manchester City en el 70'
  • 70'
    GOALLLLL!!!
  • 68'
    Kyle Walker fouls Hojbjerg, who looks to go down rather easily, but earns his team a free kick in the process
  • 65'
    Corner for Guardiola's team! They play it short, then Silva crosses it into the box for Aguero, who heads the ball wide once again
  • 61'
    Every time the ball goes out of play on his side of the pitch, the boss is there to get it back in his players' hands as quick as possible. If it's urgency he wants, he's certainly leading by example!
  • 60'
    Another corner for City, they must have had so many in this game!! It again comes to nothing as it is cleared out
  • 59'
    Sterling needs to be careful as he is already on a yellow card, but he fouls again as he literally pushes Redmond to the ground!
  • 57'
    A bit of good play from City, as they manage to get the ball past the defenders and to Aguero, but he kicks the ball well wide of the net! City need to be more clinical here
  • 56'
    Corner for City!
  • 53'
    Sterling manages to worm his way through several Southampton defenders before the ball is cleared away by them in the box
  • 50'
    Corner for City, but Fernandinho is deemed offside
  • 50'
    Ward-Prowse has a shot after the ref says plays on, even though Southampton think they should have got a free kicka nd stop playing. The shot is saved by Ederson
  • 45'
    We are underway for the second half! What is going to happen in these 45 minutes?
  • 45'
    One change at half time as Gabriel Jesus comes on for David Silva, who limped off in the first half
  • 45'
    HALF TIME! Southampton go into the half time in the lead after a goal from Ward-Prowse put them in the lead early on. It has not been for the lack of trying for City, who have pressured and had a lot of shots in the first half. But Southampton's defence have been solid and determined not to let anything get past them. An interesting second half to come!
  • 45'
    Corner for City on the edge of half time!
  • 45'
    1 minute of added time!
  • 43'
    Ings has a long distance shot, but it is easily saved by Ederson!
  • 39'
    Sterling goes into the book as he fouls Valery, who makes a run down the pitch and Southampton have a free kick.
  • 38'
    And yet another corner!! Gundogan crosses it into the box and Stones is there to get his head on it, but it goes just over the crossbar!
  • 37'
    Corner for City, but it's the same old story, as Southampton manage to clear
  • 35'
    Aguero brings down Angelino's centre, but his touch lets him down ever so slightly and Vestergaard boots the ball clear. City's No.10 has got at least three players around him every time the ball goes into the box, here.
  • 29'
    To give you an idea of how advanced City are: Angelino is currently their deepest outfield player. He's 10 yards into the Southampton half.
  • 28'
    Another short corner for City, as Walker crosses it in to the far post, but nobody is there and it goes wide
  • 27'
    Corner for City, but they play it short, meaning Southampton manage to deal with it and kick it up the pitch.
  • 26'
    Sterling has a shot from inside the box but Mccarthy gets to it safely
  • 24'
    City are having shot after shot, but Southampton's defence is remaining solid at the moment and managing to block almost every shot.
  • 24'
    Even though Southampton are ahead, Manchester are dominating and have the most possession, with most of the play taking place in their attacking end.

    What a shock for Manchester City, can they get back into this game now? Or will Southampton gain confidence and add to their lead?
  • 12'
    SOUTHAMPTON HAVE THE LEAD! A great piece of counter play from the Saints. Hojbjerg crosses the ball into the box, Armstrong has a shot from the edge, but it is saved by Ederson and Ward-Prowse is there to slot in the deflection! 0-1!
  • 12'
    AND JUST LIKE THAT...

    De Bruyne receives the ball inside the box and goes for goal, but his shot is blocked by Southampton's solid defence
  • 8'
    Silva tries his luck as the ball is crossed in for him, but it is too high and goes too far, going out for a goal kick! Manchester City looking strong as ever
  • 4'
    City free kick as Bernardo Silva goes down after a late challenge on his ankle by Armstrong
  • 2'
    Corner for City as they look to press early on. Angelino's ball into the box is cleared out for the corner, which comes to nothing, as Southampton look to counter
