Sheff Utd 0-1 Man City: Aguero's late winner pulls Citizens back to winning ways
Game is over and the final score is Sheffield United 0-1 Man City. Here is the match report.
13' Yellow Card! Besic booked
He flies straight in on Laporte from nowhere and catches his standing leg as the defender plays the ball on the edge of his own box. Laporte looks in pain straight away, but is back on his feet now.
19' CLOSE! Sterling's shot stopped by Dean Henderson
Sterling
looks right to Mahrez who returns the favour with a pinpoint low pass
inside past three defenders, and the England man's effort, bound for the
corner, is kept out by a wonderful fingertip save from Henderson.
25' CHANCE! Otamendi's bicycle kick stopped by Dean Henderson
Man City look certain to score with bodies flooding into the Sheff Utd box, and an unlikely face, that of Otamendi, connecting perfectly with a scissor kick from a right-wing cross, and forcing another smart save from Henderson with his legs.
36' Penalty Missed! (Jesus)
Mahrez
turns inside of Stevens' slide, gets past Egan and it's Basham who runs
straight into him and brings him down. It doesn't need a VAR review.
Jesus goes to the goalkeeper's right, but he keeps it out! Henderson,
the Man Utd loanee has kept out the Man City penalty!
59' Rodri's header wide out
Another corner for City - their eighth of the game now - and it's De Bruyne once more with the ball, but Rodri heads wide from the near post. It's not far off finding the bottom corner!
61' Jesus' header stopped by Dean Henderson
City refusing to take their foot off the gas and Jesus gets in behind and onto Rodri's pass, but there isn't enough pace for the ball and it's a simple save for Henderson from Jesus' header!
62' Mousset's back-heel flick stopped by Ederson
Wonderful stuff from Sheffield United - McBurnie with a neat pass into Basham inside the area, but his shot is saved. Only as far as Mousset from a few yards out and he seems caught between trying to catch out Ederson with a backheel and setting up Fleck - in the end he does neither and the ball returns to Ederson's grateful hands with Fleck's hands on his head.
73' GOAL! Sheffield United 0-1 Man City (Aguero)
City
break quickly from McBurnie's miss up the other end and Aguero is in
the right place at the right time for a tap-in from inside the six-yard
box!

Man City XI: Fernandinho, Otamendi, Walker, De Bruyne, Mahrez, Sterling, Laporte, Ederson, Zinchenko, Jesus, Rodri
