Riyad Mahrez scored twice as Manchester City delivered one of their best Champions League performances to thrash Club Brugge 5-1 on Tuesday and re-emphasise their status as major contenders for a first European crown. Joao Cancelo gave City the lead on the half-hour and Mahrez converted a penalty.
Kyle Walker added a third and Cole Palmer, 19, bagged his first Champions League goal minutes after coming on as a substitute. Hans Vanaken pulled a goal back to the delight of the home supporters but Mahrez capped a thumping City victory with his second of the night. “It was one of the best performances in Europe we’ve done so far,” said Guardiola. “We are all delighted. We were so good.”
