West Ham United Vs Manchester City
Manchester City beats West Ham United 4-0

Goal Scorers - Kevin de Bruyne(17)David Silva(21)Gabriel Jesus(39) and Yaya Tour(67th minute penalty)

Gabriel Jesus scored his first Manchester City goal as they tore West Ham apart at London Stadium.
City, who left striker Sergio Aguero and goalkeeper Claudio Bravo on the bench, led when Kevin de Bruyne played a one-two with Jesus before stroking home.
Four minutes later, they doubled their lead when the impressive Leroy Sane beat two defenders and his deflected cross was tapped home by David Silva.
And the game was as good as won before half-time when Raheem Sterling squared the ball to Jesus to tap home.
Yaya Toure added a fourth after the break from a penalty when Hammers debutant Jose Fonte brought down Sterling.
  • Gabriel Jesus became the first player to both score and assist a goal on their first Premier League start for Manchester City.
  • Jesus also became the second youngest Brazilian player to score his first Premier League goal (19yrs 304days), after Rafael for Manchester United in November 2008 (18yrs 122days).
  • David Silva scored his third away Premier League goal against West Ham - his highest tally of away goals against another opponent in the competition.
  • West Ham have shipped four or more goals in three of their 12 Premier League games at London Stadium - the same number as in their final 106 top-flight games at Upton Park.
  • Yaya Toure has scored all 11 of his Premier League penalties - the best 100% record in the competition.
  • In his 50th Premier League game, Kevin de Bruyne recorded his 30th goal involvement in the competition (11 goals, 19 assists).
  • City have scored nine goals in two games in all competitions at London Stadium - just half the number West Ham have (18) in 17 games there
