'He's becoming the go-to guy for Manchester City': Joleon Lescott and Owen Hargreaves laud Phil Foden's display after he scored the winner against Olympiakos in the Champions League to seal progression to the knockouts for Pep Guardiola's side

Joleon Lescott and Owen Hargreaves heaped praise on Manchester City's Phil Foden after the midfielder scored the winner in his side's Champions League victory over Olympiakos.

Foden scored a thumping low finish in the first-half after Raheem Sterling's clever backheel on Wednesday night to earn the 1-0 victory away in Greece and seal City's passage to the knockout stages with two group games to spare.

Former City defender Lescott claims the young England international is becoming Pep Guardiola's 'go-to guy' at the Etihad Stadium and praised Foden's commitment to the cause.
