The 29-year-old was included in Pep Guardiola’s starting eleven against the Foxes with Gundogan playing alongside Rodri and Kevin De Bruyne in midfield.

Gundogan played the full 90 minutes and won his side a penalty in the 62nd minute, however, Sergio Aguero missed from the spot.

Following the final whistle, Gundogan shared a photo of himself from the game and praised his side for their 1-0 win over a ‘tough opponent.’

City are back in action on Wednesday night when they take on Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium.
