City were 4-0 up inside 25 minutes thanks to goals from Kevin De Bruyne, Ilkay Gundogan, Riyad Mahrez and Raheem Sterling, before Leicester hit three goals in the space of ten second-half minutes to turn the contest on its head.
But Aymeric Laporte‘s emphatic header made it 5-3, before Sterling scored his second late on to seal the victory.
It was chaotic, breathless and thoroughly entertaining - the highest-scoring Boxing Day fixture in the Premier League era.
