Manchester City now lead Sheffield United 2-0 after Julian Alvarez scores from close range.

The treble winners look set to gain a comfortable three points at the Eithad Stadium as they are currently cruising to a 2-0 victory.

Rodri broke the deadlock for his side with a tremendous strike from just outside the box in the first half.

Alvarez then grabbed the second after a fantastic ball from Phil Foden left him with an easy tap-in from 5 yards.
