On evenings such as this Manchester City are like the Terminator: a relentless foe that refuses to be cowed no matter what comes at them. Copenhagen showed their courage in answering the sparkling Kevin De Bruyne’s opener with Magnus Mattsson’s leveller, the Belgian then creating Bernardo Silva’s second.
All of these goals were scored before the interval. Before and after De Bruyne was the prime City personification of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s character in the Hollywood blockbuster whose epithet “I’ll be back” could be applied to the irresistible 32-year-old.
