That’s all from me. I’ll leave you with Jamie Jackson’s match report from the Etihad – goodnight!

The matchwinner Nathan Ake speaks

I thought we deserved to win. We were better in the second half, but it was tough – they press very high and it was hard to play out. We had to use Erling more.

[On the goal] It was a good pass from Jack and I think it’s the first one I’ve scored with my right foot, so I’m pleased with that.

There’s still more to come from the team. Today was more about resilience; we stayed strong and made sure we didn’t concede.
