Manchester City made such light work of Copenhagen at the Etihad Stadium that Pep Guardiola saw fit to withdraw Erling Haaland at half-time - denying the prolific Norwegian what could have been a fourth hat-trick since joining the club in summer.

Haaland was not the only City player who impressed, with Jack Grealish and Ilkay Gundogan also producing top quality performances.

City were never not in control here, with Haaland's first coming just seven minutes in. He doubled his team's lead after half an hour and the hosts went further ahead through an own goal, before Riyad Mahrez and Julian Alvarez struck in a procession of a second half.
