Pep Guardiola fears for Jack Grealish after Man City star is forced off in Champions League victory over Copenhagen... with Bernardo Silva also suffering an injury scare

Manchester City have one foot in the Champions League quarter-finals – but left Copenhagen battered and bruised after Tuesday night’s 3-1 victory.

Phil Foden’s stoppage-time goal gives them a two-goal cushion going into next month’s second leg at the Etihad Stadium after Kevin De Bruyne and Bernardo Silva had found the net.

But Pep Guardiola was left worried about the extent of a groin injury sustained by Jack Grealish – and saw Silva forced off after a nasty tackle on his ankle.

City were left incensed by a Kevin Diks challenge that ripped Silva’s socks and the Portuguese remonstrated with the fourth official as he was substituted.
