Evening all. It is a widely known truth that the group stages of the Champions League are boring. Don't believe me? Well just cast your eyes over Group C, which features Barcelona, Celtic, and the two teams we'll afflict ourselves with here: Manchester City and Borussia Monchengladbach. Embarrassing or what? Mind you don't drop off.

End of 2nd Half
90+3'
FT: Man City 4-0 Borussia Moenchengladbach. Aguero will steal the headlines with yet another treble as City shrugged off the 24-hour delay to make it seven wins from seven under Pep.

88'
Going through the motions now. Gladbach fans probably wish they had gone home after the rain delay. City fans may be happier.
87'
Still all City. Kolarov with a daisy-cutter from 25 yards but Sommer holds on.
86'
It's 'Ole' football for City now. Just a question of whether we see a fourth or not.
85'
Great stat.
83'
Attacking players flourishing under Pep, who'd have though it...
82'
STANDING OVATION: Aguero soaks up the applause as he goes off to be replaced by Iheanacho.

MAN CITY SUB: Job done for Gundogan. A fine bow. He gets a hug from Pep as he makes way for Gael Clichy.

Nine goals and two Euro trebles for Sergio so far this term. He's always prolific but he must love playing under Pep...

GOAL! And there it is. Sterling plays it in-behind for Aguero who rounds Sommer before slipping it into the empty net. HAT-TRICK HERO.

Great stop. Sommer reacts well to keep out another effort from Aguero. Will he get that treble?
76'
Another superb showing from De Bruyne tonight.
75'
We've literally seen nothing from Moenchengladbach... NOTHING.
74'
The left-wing corner is misread by Otamendi and it flies harmlessly beyond all the City shirts in the box.
73'
Sommer gets a touch on the ball to deny Sterling after the forward was put clear by De Bruyne. City's finishing not clinical enough if it doesn't fall to you know who...
