JULIAN ALVAREZ says he has learned a lot from playing alongside Erling Haaland and Lionel Messi.
And the Argentine international forward put it to good use with an expertly taken second half goal to put Manchester City in charge.
The recent arrival from River Plate also teed up 17-year-old full-back Rico Lewis to become the second youngest English goalscorer in this competition.
Then he capped off an impressive night by playing in Riyad Mahrez to grab a late third.
Alvarez did more than anyone to ensure that Guardiola’s proud home record in the Champions League extended to 23 games.
