Delighted how Haaland has settled - Pep

Erling Haaland continued his free-scoring start to life at Manchester City with two more goals in a 4-0 win over Sevilla in Champions League Group G on Tuesday.

The Norwegian has now scored 12 goals in seven competitive games for City since joining the club from Borussia Dortmund during the close-season.

The blond striker put City ahead in the 20th minute, stretching to reach a cross from Kevin De Bruyne and place it past Sevilla keeper Yassine Bounou.

Phil Foden made it 2-0 after the break, jinking and turning to create space on the edge of the box before placing the ball into the bottom corner.

Haaland then made sure of a comfortable victory, pouncing to tap-in after Bounou had pushed out a low drive from the impressive Foden and then defender Ruben Dias added the fourth in stoppage time, turning in a low cross from Joao Cancelo.

Follow all the action as Man City travel to Sevilla in the Champions League group stages:

Dinamo Zagreb 1-0 Chelsea

48 mins: Hakim Ziyech’s first involvement in the games seems him receive the ball just outside the box and he lets fly with a low left-footed effort that bobbles through the box and is scooped up by Dominik Livakovic.

Second half: Dinamo Zagreb 1-0 Chelsea

Kick off: Thomas Tuchel has made a change at half-time with Cesar Azpilicueta sacrificed to bring on Hakim Ziyech. That change probably means a switch in formation too with the Blues moving to a back four of James, Fofana, Koulibaly and Chilwell.

Sevilla vs Man City

Pep Guardiola last faced Sevilla over ten and a half years ago when he oversaw Barcelona’s 2-0 La Liga victory at Estadio Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán.

However, the 51-year-old has won only one of his previous seven Champions League away games against Spanish clubs.

He’s named a strong City side with Phil Foden, Jack Grealish and Erling Haaland in the forward line. Will they be able to get the job done tonight?

Half-time: Dinamo Zagreb 1-0 Chelsea

45+1 mins: The first half comes to an end with Chelsea trailing in Croatia. They dominated the first 10 minutes and looked in complete control of the game before a counter-attack - beautifully finished by Mislav Orsic - sent the home side in front.

After that Dinamo gre in confidence and Thomas Tuchel has a big team talk coming up to turn this around for his team.

Dinamo Zagreb 1-0 Chelsea

43 mins: That’s better from Chelsea. Havertz takes the ball up to the box and slips Sterling in on the left side. His first touch lifts the ball to the back post where Aubameyang heads it into a defender before getting flagged offside.

It was a poor effort from Aubameyang but the Blues were more penetrating during that attack.

40 mins: Chelsea try the direct route as Mount slides the ball to Havertz who flicks the ball onto Aubameyang. The forward is shoved off the ball by Peric and the Blues’ attack breaks down.

37 mins: Petkovic receives the ball in Chelsea’s final third and has the chance to shoot. Instead he tries to to slip Luka Ivanusec into the box but he’s dispossessed by Wesley Fofana.

The ball is played out to Mason Mount but he’s tackled from behind by Arijan Ademi who is determined to recover possession for Dinamo.
