Gorgeous feet from Mahrez, jinking him into the box and past Egan, who goes out for a pint while he's at it, and through Stevens' legs, then Basham crashes through him. No doubt about that one.
34'
What a player this lad was.
33'
United win a corner which Norwood belts towards the far post. Laporte does brilliantly to head away under pressure as Egan thuds through him. There's a brief scuffle in the repachage, but nothing too exciting.
31'
Moise Kean has scored his first goal for Everton; they lead Newcastle 1-0. Ancelotti should now bring him off for jokes.
29'
I guess it might be hard for them to get up for this. They know the title is gone and they know they'll finish second, but aren't playing for Champions League places quite yet.
27'
This is strange game. City look able to cut through United whenever they put a few passes together, but their usual passing and probing is conspicuous by its absence.

The ball bobbles about in the United box and Sterling strikes another, Henderson making another good save - this time with his feet.
24'
Norwood misses his kick and Sterling bursts onto the ball, so Norwood brings him down and accepts his booking. "It's an art," says Jermaine Jenas, while Paul Dempsey talks rubbish about "youngsters watching the game". The games I played in as a kid were far dirtier than anything you see on telly.

I'm beginning to wonder about Dean Henderson, who clearly has the mentality to be a top keeper and, increasingly, is looking like he's got the ability too. David de Gea is showing no signs of commanding his box, improving his kicking and binning the silly errors; if I was Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, I'd be thinking about getting him back.
22'
No they aren't. Southampton, who are on a ludicrous run, have just taken the lead at Palace.
22'
All tonight's games are 0-0.

But here come City, Sterling pouncing on a mistake by Basham in the centre-circle and finding Mahrez who glides towards the box then feeds him back in! Sterling has a proper sight of goal here - ye've gottae score! - and catches his shot well too, but sticks it too close to Henderson, who shovels it away.
19'
Lovely from Stevens, combining with Sharp to skip towards the line; Walker blocks him off at cost of a throw-in, which comes to nothing.
18'
City need to get De Bruyne on the ball. We've hardly seen him so far.
16'
City have had the more possession but haven't done anything with it. They're just not as good when Jesus plays instead of Aguero and when sterling plays on the left to accommodate Mahrez.
15'
Ball over the top from O'Connell which Shrap chases, chesting down as Otamendi challenges, but the flag goes up.
15'
Laporte looks ok.

And in a funny way he'll feel even better now, because Besic has just ploughed through him. He stays down, but looks ok; his assailant is booked.
12'
Laporte will feel a lot better now, thundering into a slide tackle to rob Baldock.
11'
My internet crashes, but it's still 0-0.
7'
Nice from United, Sharp running Laporte and making it onto a rather fortuitous flick from McBurnie, crossing for Fleck ... but Fernandinho does well to clear.
