0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — SK Slovan Bratislava and Manchester City FC get this one started.
5' SK Slovan Bratislava have won 94 goals from 63 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
8' What composure from Ilkay Gundogan! The Germany international strokes it home. 0-1.
13' 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 Jeremy Doku suffering a number of foals already.
15' The England midfielder Phil Foden breaks the deadlock on 15 minutes. 0-2!
20' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both SK Slovan Bratislava and Manchester City FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
25' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
30' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
35' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His SK Slovan Bratislava side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
40' Kyriakos Savvidis has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
45' Manchester City FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
50' Vladimir Weiss has been relatively quiet despite scoring 9 goals in his last 63 appearances.
55' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
58' Magnificent from Erling Haaland! That is 255 goals in 83 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
60' The Manchester City FC manager makes a substitution. Erling Haaland departs to be replaced by James McAtee.
63' Another substitution for SK Slovan Bratislava to replace Danylo Ignatenko by Julius Szoke on 63 minute.
68' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
73' Stefan Ortega Moreno has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
74' The deadlock is broken! James McAtee gets on the scoresheet on 74 minutes.
78' Another substitution for Manchester City FC to replace Josko Gvardiol by Kyle Walker on 78 minute.
83' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
85' Another substitution for SK Slovan Bratislava to replace Tigran Barseghyan by Robert Mak on 85 minute.
90' It is a cagey affair so far. SK Slovan Bratislava in their 4-2-3-1 trying to find a way past Manchester City FC's compact 4-2-3-1.
With this win, Manchester City FC is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
