Hello and welcome to our live coverage of the Premier League match between Manchester City and Stoke City at the Etihad Stadium.

There goes the final whistle! Manchester City run out 1-0 winners on the day. Three points. Job done in the end.

Ball breaks to Ireland in the home box. Chance to test Hart, but his volley spins well wide of the target.

We are into four minutes of time added on.

Dzeko has collected a booking too as Silva hoists the ball foward from deep inside his half. Ball played back in, but this time Hart is off his line to collect.

Think he was winded after colliding with Shawcross. Looks winded. But he should be fine as the final whistle approaches.

Toure is down on the deck in need of some treatment. Not sure what is going on here.

A few of the home fans begin to head for the exit door. Not been a classic day's entertainment, but look like they have done enough.

Crouch tried to pick out Ireland on the run, but Demichelis back in time to win the ball. Perhaps Crouch should have shot.

Pieters with another fabulous tackle to win the ball from Toure. Looked a certain second as he prepared to pull the trigger.

City almost over the line in what has been a tough old shift for them with Kompany making sure Odemwingie can't elude him.

Navas knocks a pass straight out of play standing five yards away from Zabaleta.

Hughes calling for his side to find some momentum as Crouch flies into a late tackle on Kompany.

City have now already scored 69 goals this Premier League season, only behind 2011/12 (93) and 2009/10 (73).

Silve penalised for a late tackle. Another change for Stoke as Etherington replaces Whelan.

The home side have another corner coming up here that will be delivered by Nasri. Crouch doing well to beat Kompany in the air.

On comes Stephen Ireland for the visiting side, off goes Walters after that crude tackle by Zabaleta. If you can call it a tackle.

Mark Hughes far from happy with that call. Begovic diving low to his right to palm away a Javi Garcia howitzer.

Walters taken out late by Zabaleta. Bad decision. Should have been a yellow card. Was a cynical challenge by Zabaleta.

Yaya Touré scores his 13th league goal of the season. He is second on the club's top scorer list behind only Sergio Agüero (15).

City have to hope that doesn't come back to haunt them in the death throes of this contest.
