Manchester City has partially ensured their place in the last 8 of the UEFA Champions League with a comfortable 2-0 away victory over Borussia Mönchengladbach in the last 16 of the tournament.

Bernardo Silva had opened the scoring for the Citizens after only 29 minutes when Joao Cancelo cut in onto his right foot and swung a perfect cross in. Silva met it well and sent a bouncing header back across the goal and in.

A lot of similarities to the first. Joao Cancelo's in swinging cross found the head of Bernardo Silva. This time though Silva heads it across goal and Gabriel Jesus was quicker to the ball than a defender to stab it home from six yards.

The second leg will be played on Tuesday, March 16.
