3' - Nathaniel Mendez-Laing sprints beyond Danilo down the right wing before whipping a low cross into the box. The ball evades everybody in the box though and Kyle Walker manages to clear the danger.
6' - Danilo storms down the left wing before cutting the ball for Ilkay Gundogan, whose left-footed shot from just inside the box is parried away by Neil Etheridge.
GOAL! Cardiff City 0-1 Manchester City (De Bruyne)
8' - That's genius.
Kevin De Bruyne gives the visitors the lead with a cleverly-taken free-kick as he strokes the ball underneath the jumping Cardiff City wall and into the bottom corner after a foul on Ilkay Gundogan by Joe Ralls.
15' - Ilkay Gundogan stoops low to meet Leroy Sane's corner at the near post but the German's header loops over the bar.
17' - Classic Claudio Bravo.
The Manchester City goalkeeper almost gifts Cardiff an equaliser as he fumbles Junior Hoilett's long shot and just about manages to scramble back to prevent the ball from crossing the line.
Cardiff's players have their tails up here!
Manchester City's players celebrate Kevin De Bruyne's opening goal
25' - Bernardo Silva lashes the ball into the top corner for City... but the linesman's flag goes up against Leroy Sane, who is adjudged to have been in an offside position and in the goalkeeper's eyeline.
That's a quite ridiculous decision. There is no way that goal should've been disallowed.
30' - Raheem Sterling works himself a bit of space on the edge of the Cardiff area before letting fly with his left foot. However, the shot is blocked behind for a corner, which comes to nothing for the visitors.
Kevin De Bruyne opens the scoring for City with an ingenious free-kick
