City scored five goals for the second time in four days as we secured a thrilling Premier League win at the Etihad Stadium.
Enzo Maresca made 10 changes from the side that beat Norwich City 5-0 in the Carabao Cup on Thursday night.
First half goals from Enzo Fernández and Rayan Cherki were twice equalised by Sunderland striker Brian Brobbey who completed his hat-trick after Antoine Semenyo scored twice either side of half-time.
Victory was secured with nine minutes remaining when Erling Haaland steered home Joško Gvardiol’s cross with the City striker now scoring against each of the 25 Premier League opponents he has faced.
The win means City are three points clear at the top of the Premier League and the only side with a 100% record as we move into a three-week international break.
