ETIHAD IN A STUNNED SILENCE! This is a similarly poor goal for Man City to concede.
Dias is turned on halfway by Openda, who had to travel nearly half the pitch to get to the goal.
He seemed to be taking an age with his dribbling, allowing Gvardiol to get across.
But he knew exactly what he was doing, he is once again the coolest man in the building. He just nudges it past Gvardiol, who lunges in, and beats Ortega at the near post.
Grealish and Gvardiol start for Man City
Man City boss Pep Guardiola has made four changes from Saturday’s 1-1 draw with Liverpool in the Premier League.
Jack Grealish has recovered from illness to replace Jeremy Doku in the front three with Erling Haaland and Phil Foden.
Rico Lewis takes the places of Julian Alvarez and will sit in midfield alongside Rodri and Bernardo Silva.
Josko Gvardiol, signed from RB Leipzig in the summer, is preferred ahead of Nathan Ake against his old club. Kyle Walker, Ruben Dias and Manuel Akanji complete the back four.
Stefan Ortega has also been handed a start in goal with Ederson left on the bench.
