FOURTH GOAL FOR MAN CITY! Aguero thumps a stunning shot at goal from 25 yards and it flies into the corner of the net. No chance for poor Vorm. What a strike from Aguero. Stunning stuff.

City will be the only home side to have picked up a win in the Premier League after the opening round of fixtures.

Man City are like a hot knife going through butter when Aguero and Silva get togehter up front. Another change coming here for Swansea.

Man City can break again here. Silva and Aguero combine, but just too much pace on the ball as it runs through to the relieved Vorm.

Free-kick for Swansea 25 yards out. Allen swings the ball in, but Richards was at the back post to head out. Solid defending.

Not sure how we can judge this one tonight. Swansea are obviously playing at a different level from the hosts. They've been strangled in this second period.

Superb stop from Vorm! He dived to claw out the free-kick from Toure after it had deflected through the wall. He has had a fine game this evening.
