Guardiola believes De Bruyne is best after Lionel Messi
Iheanacho is selfish to give Sterling the goal, and Raheem should have finished it better, but the ball crossed the line anyway and that's what counts in the end. Two minutes after the break, the 28-year-old nodded his second after a deflected cross from compatriot Riyad Mahrez, whose rejuvenation was also evident from the 66th minute run and cross that forced defender Ben Mee to turn an inadvertent third past his own keeper.
