Man City put on throwback performance with comfortable win over Marseille

Manchester City were back at their magnificent best in Tuesday's 3-0 romp of Marseille at Stade Velodrome in the Champions League group stage.

The Sky Blues dominated from the first minute and were rewarded with an early lead when Ferran Torres tapped in Kevin De Bruyne's square pass.

City stepped up their game as Marseille tired in the second-half, and it was Ilkay Gundogan who doubled their advantage before Raheem Sterling sealed the victory with nine minutes remaining.

Pep Guardiola's side are now top of Group C with six points from two wins.

They will next face Olympiakos on November 3.
