Just as all hope looked lost, Ilkay Gundogan stepped up and proved why he became Pep Guardiola's first Manchester City signing in five crazy minutes.
If someone pulled together a compilation of the German's goals while in England, 80 per cent of them would include him ghosting in, unmarked to the back post for a simple tap in. But it's not that simple, Gundogan has a sense of sniffing a goalscoring opportunity unlike anyone in world football - the phrase 'right place, right time' could literally be his catchphrase.
He scored his heroic brace last Sunday from a combined seven yards out, but them seven yards won City a fourth Premier League title in five seasons and engrained Gundogan into club folklore.
