36'
Zabaleta bundles over Wickham and Sunderland can finally get up the pitch but a wayward header from Wickham sees City with a throw on the right.
35'
Sunderland are now really struggling to hold off Man City. Reveillere is forced well back from the half way line and can only just win a throw off Aguero to ease the pressure.
34'
Fernandinho tries to play in Navas down the right but his pass is off and it goes out for a Sunderland throw. They'd do well to slow this game down a bit as Fletcher struggles to get any decent service.
33'
Aguero gets rolled in down the right channel. He manages to get into the box but is off balance as he strikes and it trickles calmly out for a goal kick.
32'
Buckley unlucky to give away a free kick as he nicks the ball from Jovetic. City again start moving the ball about in beautiful triangles but Sunderland just about manage to clear as Nasri approach the box.
31'
Long ball from Boyata towards Jovetic who was peeling to the left wing is cut out by Vergini and back to Pantilimon.
30'
Nasri and Clichy pass rings around Vergini but the Argentine just about manages to clear with a crunching tackle on the left-back.
29'
City still just moving the ball about with such ease.
28'
City just stroking the ball about with ease.
27'
Sunderland try and break but a ball over to the right from Reveillere towards Wickham is cut out and City are back in possession.
26'
City look like they're toying with Sunderland here even though the score remains 1-1. They can't get near the champions at the moment as Nasri strikes over from the edge of the area.
25'
Jovetic with a superb turn on the half way line to round Vergini and the ref blows up for a clear foul.
24'
Navas with a good effort from a tight angle on the edge of the area. His first touch is excellent to set himself but he strikes wide of the far post.
23'
City in full control now as Sunderland struggle to get out of their own half.
22'
Aguero goes sprinting down the left but he receives no support and does brilliantly to manage to get the ball back to Yaya Toure.
21'
City look to bounce back straight away and they do! Aguero picks it up 30 yards out. He skips past Cattermole and then John O'Shea and smashes it into the top corner from 20 yards. Incredible strike.
19'
GOAL! Looks like an own goal! Zabaleta has played it on to Conor Wickham trying to dispossess him and it has deflected off the striker and into the bottom corner. That's 1-0 to Sunderland!
18'
Free kick as Jovetic backs into Vergini. Pantilimon knocks it long but just gifts possession back to Man City.
17'
More great football from City as they keep Sunderland well away from the ball.Navas drills another fine low cross but there is noone in the box to tap it in.
16'
Aguero tries to take on Vergini down the left but gets some help from Larsson and can't find a way through. He turns back and gives it to Clihcy.
15'
Man City in control here but no real inroads being made.
