Man City player ratings vs Sevilla as Rico Lewis and Julian Alvarez good

Ortega: Helpless for the goal and produced an audacious chest down from a ball outside the box in a move Ederson would have appreciated. 7

Lewis: What a moment for him just to start, but then not just score but score a goal as good as that?! Terrific. 8

Dias: Sloppy for the Sevilla goal and lost some duels needlessly. Improved in the second half. 6

Laporte: Always looking to push City forward on the ball, and was solid defensively. 7

Gomez: Poor marking for the goal as he watched Rafa Mir jump and head the ball. Couldn't offer much going forward. 5

Gundogan: One of City's better players while he was on, although most of their best play came without him 7

Palmer: Missed a good chance early on, felt like he wanted to drift to his more natural position on the right. 6

Foden: City's brightest player in the game, looking sharp and always trying to create. 8

Mahrez: Scored the third after it was put on a plate for him, but another frustrating evening. 6

Grealish: Got the fans off their feet with a few enterprising runs but was unable to produce a goal threat. 6

Alvarez: Two assists and one goal - a very good second half for the Argentine and looked better with better players. 8

Substitutes

Rodri (for Grealish, 46) Helped turn the game in City's favour 7

Bernardo (for Gundogan, 57) Added quality to the side with incisive passing. 7

Wilson-Esbrand (for Gomez, 70) Steady on the ball and happy to take his defender on. 7

De Bruyne (for Palmer, 70) Did more in his first four minutes on the pitch than most managed in total. Great assist. 7

Cancelo (for Lewis, 86) No time to mark

Not used: Ederson, Carson, Stones, Ake
