Yaya Touré scored a sublime second as Manchester City kicked-off their Champions League campaign with a 3-0 win at Viktoria Plzeň.
City were in front just two minutes into the second half when Sergio Agüero's break teed up Edin Džeko to slot home.
The night got even better for City five minutes later when Touré doubled the lead with an early contender for goal of the season.
The Ivorian received a pass in the middle of the Plzeň half, bore down on goal and then curled a sumptuous shot into the top right-hand corner from 25 yards out.
Agüero then made it 3-0 with another fine finish to leave the home side shell-shocked.
"To be honest, I think my goal was a nice goal but I'm just happy that it helped the team to win," Touré said after the match.
