Pep Guardiola’s team selection raised a few eyebrows as he picked a side without a recognised striker – but it turned out to be an inspired move, with City imperious for much of the game.
It was a masterclass display, with the team responding to the demands of the manager.
City went behind against the run of play when Isco slotted home, but Jesus’ fine header drew City level with 12 minutes remaining.
And De Bruyne sealed a deserved win with his 50th City goal, stroking home from the penalty spot after Raheem Sterling was brought down by Dani Carvajal.
