Manchester City has secured a place in the Champions League knockout round with a fantastic win against Serie A leaders, Napoli Wednesday night.
City recorded a 4-2 win as they secured arguably their greatest ever away victory in Europe to make it four.
It was also their 14 straight wins in all competitions this season.
It was probably City’s toughest test of the season so far — particularly at the Stadio San Paolo where Napoli had never lost to a Premier League side on five previous occasions.
Napoli are also unbeaten at home this season.
Nicolas Otamendi cancelled out Lorenzo Insigne’s opener for Napoli.
John Stones put City ahead three minutes after the break as his header hit the underside of the bar and bounced just over the line.
Napoli answered on 62 minutes when they were given a penalty after Leroy Sane tripped Raul Albiol in the box, with Jorghino scoring the spot kick.
The home side were caught at quick break from Sane who dropped the ball for Aguero to coolly slot past Pepe Reina for the third goal.
City wrapped up the win when Raheem Sterling added a fourth with a neat finish in injury time.
