​Man City keeper Ederson ready for Feyenoord clash despite horrific face injury

Manchester City keeper Ederson could start the Champions League tie against Feyenoord on Wednesday, just five days after suffering a horrific facial injury in the 5-0 win over Liverpool.

The Brazilian returned to training wearing a scrum cap on Monday, and manager Pep Guardiola thinks that he has a chance to start against the Dutch champions.

"I could understand that feeling, but in today's training session, there were two or three long balls and he was there," said the City boss.

"Of course, it can happen, but we will see."
