  • 10' Leif Davis is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Manchester City FC tonight.
  • 15' The energy levels are beginning to show. Pep Guardiola might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 20' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Dara O'Shea suffering a number of foals already.
  • 25' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 27' GOAL! Phil Foden fires home to make it 0-1!

  • 42' Phil Foden doubles the advantage! 0-3 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.

  • 62' Ilkay Gundogan has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 63' The Manchester City FC bench stirs into life. Phil Foden is withdrawn and Jack Grealish gets his opportunity.
  • 64' Time for substitution for Ipswich Town FC. Ben Godfrey is replaced by Axel Tuanzebe.
  • 69' Magnificent from James McAtee! That is 21 goals in 444 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 72' Manchester City FC ring the changes. Manuel Akanji has done his job and it is now time for Nico O'Reilly to step up.
