    Another magnificent save, this time from Palmer who looks keen to make the most of his opportunity.

  • Manchester City 3-0 FC Copenhagen

    49, If the Copenhagen defenders thought they couold take it easy now that Palmer is on then they are very much mistaken.

  • City changes on the way?

    Tonight seems a perfect opportunity for Guardiola to protect his prize asset and give some minutes to the City youngsters on the bench.

    The second half is coming up next!

  • Half-Time! Manchester City 3-0 FC Copenhagen

    45, There was just enough time for City to work one more opening before the half but Bernardo Silva wasted it when he shot over the crossbar at the back post.

    Death, taxes and Erling Haaland scoring for Manchester City.

  • Manchester City 3-0 FC Copenhagen

    43, Fair play to the Copenhagen fans who are still giving it large in the corner of the Etihad.

    You could have forgiven them for being a bit subdued after travelling all this way to watch their team be beaten so convincingly.

  • Goal! Manchester City 3-0 FC Copenhagen (Own-goal)

    39, Game over.

    City's dominance is now reflected on the scoreline.

  • Goal! Manchester City 2-0 FC Copenhagen (Haaland)

    33, Is it going to get boring for him at some point?

    This one is a classic striker's goal.

    Gomez' volley form the edge of area is saved by Grabara, but he fails to parry the ball away from his goal and Haaland gratefully nudges the ball into the empty net before the goalkeeper can get to his feet.

  • Manchester City 1-0 FC Copenhagen

    30, Grabara is earning his money tonight!

    This time it's Grealish's turn to see an effort well-saved by the goalkeeper.

  • Manchester City 1-0 FC Copenhagen

    23, Haaland draws another save from Grabara.

    The Norweigian picks up on a loose ball at the edge of the penalty area before turning and shooting towards goal.

    Grabara seems shocked by the pace that Haaland manages to generate on his shot, but the goalkeeper does just about enough to keep it out.

  • Manchester City 1-0 FC Copenhagen

    22, City are effectively playing a 2-3-5 formation here.

    It's a bizarre sight, but one that underlines their confidence as a team.
