PHIL'S STILL GOT SKILLS

Foden reminds everyone of class to seal win

- BY SIMON BAJKOWSKI

0-1 Phil Foden breaks the deadlock for Man City with a crisp first-half strike

COME for the goal, stay for the midfield marshalling that steered Manchester City through to the next round of the Carabao Cup.

Pep Guardiola made nine changes from Sunday for their trip to Huddersfield, yet it was Phil Foden - starting his fourth game in 11 days - who stepped up and took responsibility in a 2-0 win.

His first-half goal to give City the lead was textbook, exchanging passes outside the area with debutant Divine Mukasa before getting the ball out of his feet and firing into the far corner of Lee Nicholls' net.

But City will be even more thrilled with the desire and energy Foden showed to push himself to his limit to make the difference for the team.
