In the 63rd minute of the second half, City’s 21-year-old Cole Palmer put the ball in the net with his head on.

Since no more goals were seen in the follow-up match either, the match was decided by a penalty shoot-out.

City missed the match due to injuries and illnesses, among other things Kevin De Bruyne and Bernardo Silva.
