It was an action-packed night for the Manchester City stars on international duty overnight. Phil Foden and Erling Haaland found the scoresheet for England and Norway to steal the headlines for their countries.
Phil Foden, Kyle Walker and Kalvin Phillips all started for England in their 3-1 friendly win over Scotland. It was a positive for Kalvin Phillips to get through 90 minutes and play well after not featuring prominently at the beginning of City’s season.
Phil Foden provided the opener for England in their 3-1 win. Foden’s performance answered any doubts if he could start for Gareth Southgate. Kyle Walker provided an assist as he continued his fine form to begin the season.
Manchester City’s trio of England representatives will return to City in a buoyant mood following their performances.
