Everton vs Manchester City: Why Gundogan is firing on all cylinders
Two goals and an assist against Everton mean Ilkay Gundogan is on that run he has come to be known for at Manchester City.
"It was instinct,” he said, per the BBC.
“It helped me a lot that Erling could distract both centre-backs. I saw the space created and tried to make the run. I was waiting for Riyad's ball.
“Even though it was at the back of my run it came quite well for me to take a touch. Everything after was instinct. I didn't see any other option, I just tried to go for goal. It went well."
