Training gallery: Buoyant Blues

City were in high spirits, as the squad trained in Germany, following Tuesday night's dramatic Champions League victory.

The Blues snatched a crucial triumph against Hoffenheim at the Rhein-Neckar-Arena with a late David Silva goal after Sergio Aguero had cancelled out Ishak Belfodil’s first-minute opener.

On Wednesday morning, the team enjoyed a training session at the Sportpark Arena Pronto, buoyed by the win and looking ahead to Sunday’s top-of-the-table clash with Liverpool.
