City levelled on 18 minutes when John Guidetti saw his shot saved by the keeper only for the rebound to fall nicely for Ahmad Benali to finish.

City took the lead on 70 minutes when Andrew Mitchells long ball out of defence, deceived the Milan number 4 and fell to Guidetti who raced past another defender and finished with his left foot from just inside the box

Jeremy Helan stretched City’s lead minutes later before Milan pulled one back, two minutes before time when a forward turned Skosgrud in the box and fired past substitute keeper Erik Johansen

 

Deep into injury time Benali got his second of the game, chesting down a cross from the right, he fired past the keeper.
