MATCH REPORT:
Man City make light work of Newcastle in the end, but the Premier League is once again the subject of a contentious refereeing decision. On the whistle report below:

Ouch!
End of 2nd Half
90'
FULL-TIME
It finishes 4-0 to Manchester City. Newcastle's woes continue and it will only get more tough as they come up against Manchester United next.
A commanding performance for City, who now have scored 11 in two games.

GOAL! CITY HAVE FOUR!

HIT WITH POWER
Saint-Maximin hits one with power from 25-yards out but it just clears the crossbar.
80'
WHAT A SAVE!
Ederson reacts well to deny Callum Wilson from close range!
The ball is recycled after the Brazilian initially came from a cross following Ritchie's free-kick delivery and collided with Jeff Hendrick but the hosts get the ball back in and create a massive chance!

NEWCASTLE CHANGE:
Almiron off, Hendrick on.

HALF-CHANCE FOR NEWCASTLE COMES TO NOTHING
Saint-Maximin gets the ball just outside the box, but once again a Newcastle player cannot get the ball out of his feet and he cannot get a shot away!
The Magpies have really been disappointing in the final third.

GOOD CHANCE FOR MAN CITY!
Sterling drives with the ball across the edge of the box, before picking out Cancelo on the right. The full-back puts in a delightful ball once again, but it is flicked wide by Ruben Dias!
64'
FIFTY CITY GOALS FOR MAHREZ!
63'
GOAL!
Zinchenko puts in a delightful cross for Mahrez at the far post from the left, and the Algerian taps it in to give City a third, but it is called back for offside.
After a quick VAR check, Mahrez is clearly onside judging by the replays, and the goal is given!

GOOD MOVE!
Man City get out of defence well with some sharp, quick passing.
The ball finds its way to Kevin de Bruyne in central midfield, and the Belgian makes a driving run forward, with plenty of City shirts ahead of him.
He lays off Joao Cancelo to his right, but his shot is wide.
It turns out Cancelo and Jesus made a similar run there, and that may have just over-complicated things at the critical moment.
57'
CHANCE!
Sterling makes a good run out on the left before cutting inside and firing a shot aimed towards the bottom corner, but it is tipped away well by Dubravka.
But, the danger is not over as City still have the ball in Newcastle's half.
55'
PLAY STOPPED BRIEFLY
Gabriel Jesus is down after a clash with Jamal Lascelles.
