Raheem Sterling hit his third hat-trick of the season as City scored five without reply for the second game in a row, with Bernardo Silva and Gabriel Jesus also on target
CITYZENS GIVING FOR RECOVERY | DONATE NOW
The England winger curled in a precise finish from the edge of the area to open the scoring midway through the first half, with Jesus tapping home from a corner on the stroke of half-time.
Sterling headed home a third minutes before Bernardo Silva tapped in a rebound after Mat Ryan spilled his drive.
City’s No.7 then completed his hat-trick in slightly bizarre circumstances.
Brighton defender Adam Webster beat him in the air, but his header back to Ryan bounced off the falling Sterling’s head and through the goalkeeper’s legs to seal a comfortable victory.
