Iheanacho’s goal gives Man City victory

Premier League leaders, Manchester City, continued their 100% start to the season with an injury-time winner over nearest challengers, Crystal Palace.
Nigerian teenager Kelechi Iheanacho stabbed home his first senior goal after Samir Nasri’s shot was saved.
After a scrappy first half, Jesus Navas shot wide of an empty net for City after rounding keeper Alex McCarthy.
Sergio Aguero limped out with a knee injury, three days ahead of Juventus’s Champions League visit.
Club-record signing Kevin de Bruyne was brought on in his place as a first-half substitute, with managers Manuel Pellegrini and Alan Pardew having a heated argument over the incident.

Palace defender Scott Dann received a yellow card for the late challenge on Argentine Aguero as City spent a large part of the match struggling to create offensively.

A well-organised Palace came closest when Dwight Gayle volleyed wide.

The 18-year-old Nigerian striker had previously played three minutes and 49 seconds for Manchester City, in the 2-0 win over Watford.

He came on for Wilfried Bony with a couple of minutes remaining on Saturday and just 54 seconds later was alert enough to tap home a close-range rebound after Alex McCarthy spilled Samir Nasri’s shot.

Having signed for City in 2014, from Taye Academy in Nigeria, he impressed on the club’s pre-season tours of Australia, Vietnam and Germany.

He played five times, scored twice and could now be considered as City’s third-choice striker
