Manchester City made a welcome return to winning ways in the Premier League this weekend following a 2-1 win over Luton Town.

City had incredibly not won in the top flight since the victory over AFC Bournemouth and were on their way to dropping more points when Elijah Adebayo headed home on the stroke of half-time.

The Blues did not panic and turned the game around in the space of three second half minutes. First, Bernardo Silva curled home an equaliser before Jack Grealish tapped in at the back post to win the game for his team.
