Newport 0-0 Manchester City
49 minutes
Newport have made a good start to the second half. Amond plays the ball over the top for Matt, who makes himself a nuisance for the City defence. A cross comes in from the right but City do enough to get the ball clear.

Guardiola looks contemplative and slightly forlorn. He doesn't appear to be enjoying this.
GOAL! Newport 0-1 Manchester City (Sane)
51 minutes
Guardiola has perked up now! Jesus and Sane link up on the left and the German hits a powerful shot at goal. Day appears to have made the save, but it hits the goalkeeper in the face and rolls across the line. City lead and you'd expect them to go on and win comfortably now.
Newport 0-1 Manchester City
54 minutes
Day has been receiving some treatment since the goal to try and stop the bleeding from his nose. That's how much power Sane got on that shot.
Newport 0-1 Manchester City
55 minutes
Danilo lines up a shot from distance and strikes it well on his left foot. Day has to get down to his left quickly and gets a strong hand to it, palming it behind for a corner.
Newport 0-1 Manchester City
57 minutes
Danilo comes close again. He plays a one-two with Jesus and looks to convert from a tight angle. Day gets a slight touch on it to divert it onto the post. City are in complete control now, though, and a second goal looks inevitable.
Newport 0-1 Manchester City
60 minutes
Mahrez collects the ball on the right, just outside the box, and tries to beat Butler with a succession of step overs. The left back does well, though, and blocks Mahrez's shot.

61 minutes
Newport make their first change: Josh Sheehan replaces Tyreeq Bakinson.
Newport 0-1 Manchester City
66 minutes
City have had over 80% of the possession in the second half and that's only likely to increase as the game progresses. Newport are tiring, but there's no shame in that. Guardiola's side do this to most Premier League opposition.

67 minutes
Very nearly a howler from Ederson, normally so composed with the ball at his feet. Stones plays the ball back to the Brazilian and he attempts a first time pass. It bobbles just before he connects, though, and he very nearly picks out Newport's Matt. Fortunately, Ederson corrects his own error and manages to clear.
