Pep Guardiola’s side summoned up a remarkable comeback from 2-0 down to overwhelm Palace and so deliver a huge boost to our push for a place in the Champions League next term.
The Eagles had stunned the Etihad by scoring twice inside the first 21 minutes thanks to strikes from Eberechi Eze and Chris Richards.
But with Kevin De Bruyne inspiring City, the Blues roared back in quite sensational style.
De Bruyne it was whose 33rd minute free-kick narrowed the deficit before Omar Marmoush then struck to level affairs at the break.
The City skipper then set up Mateo Kovacic to help fire City ahead just a minute after the restart.
And a memorable afternoon was then sealed when James McAtee – on his first Premier League start for City – and fellow Academy graduate Nico O’Reilly both added to the Blues’ tally to seal a crucial three points.
