Manchester City star and England international Phil Foden scored twice as they produced a devastating first-half display to beat Brighton 4-1 and move up to second in the Premier League.

The side scored three goals in the opening half-hour as Brighton, who could have gone above City with a win, simply could not cope with the away side’s sweeping attacks.

Other City goals were scored by Ilkay Gundogan and Riyad Mahrez and Alexis Mac Allister netted Brighton’s only goal.
