86'City are just comfortably knocking the ball around now. The game is done and most of the home supporters have already left. Not a good day at the office for David Moyes' team.

en el 64' (Manchester City)

Goaaaaaal!
en el 53' (Manchester City)

-
47'Both teams are up for this second 45 minutes. Moyes will be wanting his players to continue their momentum at the end of the first half whilst Guardiola would not have been impressed with his side conceding.

32'Kouyate is back on the pitch. Great to see.
-
31'The good news is that Kouyate is up and walking but West Ham could be forced into an early substitution here out of precaution.
-
29 'Kouyate is down in a heap and the medics are on quick to treat. Could be concussed.

26 'GOAL!! CITY!! Oh dear. Adrian comes flying out of his box to stop a charging Sterling. The ball isn't dealt with properly after an attempted header by Ogbonna and De Bruyne fires it back across goal and into the path of Rice who guides it into his own net. Awful from the home side. 2-0!!
-
23'West Ham have three strikers on their bench, if they can get to half-time with only a one-goal deficit. Things could all change at the London Stadium.
-
22'City are all over the home side at the moment.
-
20'Sterling drags a shot wide of the far right post.
-
19'City counter quick and send Jesus flying down the right but his touch is poor and Ogbonna gets in front to clear. West Ham need to keep this at 1-0 to stay in the game.
