City won the feisty pre-season affair 2-1 thanks to a first half Kevin de Bruyne brace.

Tuchel said: "It was a tough match. Normally you start against a lower team where you can find your rhythm.
“It's very different from training, even if you train at a competitive level like in our squad.
“You could see that they've already started their season. They showed a physical game that we had to adapt to, and I'm happy nobody got injured.
