This game seems over as a contest, but how many goals are Everton going to concede here? It could be crucial to the end of season outcome and Premier League survival.

Going into this game they were four goals ahead of Leeds, the next team behind them, [on goal difference] and three of those have already gone. They need to make sure they keep chipping away towards the end of this game.

Phil Foden flies down the left, no problems from that earlier injury, and crosses for Erling Haaland, who gets his angles wrong with his acrobatic volley and it doesn't even go out of play.

I'm surprised Haaland is still on the pitch with the Real Madrid game in mind.

Here come the West Ham changes as Declan Rice, Said Benrahma and 18-year-old forward Divin Mubama come on for Pablo Fornals, Maxwel Cornet and Tomas Soucek.

Ederson spills the corner but City hack it away.

Everton win a corner thanks to Amadou Onana's run and cross and the home fans give a cheer.

Ilkay Gundogan's contract runs out this summer. Probably worth a punt on a new deal...

Here comes Bryan Mbeumo again as he drifts in from the right, cuts inside Angelo Ogbonna but then his shot strikes his team-mate Yoane Wissa.

Looks like David Moyes is going to turn to his bench soon.

This is the second time Ilkay Gundogan has been involved in three goals in a Premier League match, also scoring twice and assisting once against West Brom in October 2016.

That was only his second free-kick goal in the Premier League, and first since May 2019 at Brighton.

Everton make some more changes. Conor Coady and Amadou Onana replace Mason Holgate and Idrissa Gueye.

City have a free-kick on the opposite side of the box. Ilkay Gundogan and Riyad Mahrez stand over it. This time it's Mahrez, and a cross, which James Garner puts behind for a corner.

Kevin Schade plays a great ball from the left and Bryan Mbeumo looks certain to power home a header but Angelo Ogbonna throws himself in front of it.

Crucial intervention.

Erling Haaland tries to find Ilkay Gundogan in the box but his pass is cut out. Surely some of these characters are going to be subbed off soon.

It's outstanding from Ilkay Gundogan again. He is a real player for this Manchester City team. He's grown in stature season on season and scored some crucial goals.

There's no Kevin de Bruyne in this team so he's got free-kick responsibilities and he doesn't disappoint. It's over the top of the wall and Jordan Pickford can't get anywhere near it.

It's not right in the top corner but it's certainly enough to be out of the reach of Jordan Pickford. Everton went without the modern-day draft excluder so the wall didn't jump, which gave Gundogan a bit more room to get the ball up and down over the top of the wall.

A let off for Tomas Soucek. He is sloppy with a pass on the edge of his own area but Yoane Wissa fires wide. Should have done better.

The message from Pep Guardiola at half-time would have been 'well done, but keep your standards high. Let's go after that third goal in the first 15 minutes of the second half because then we can start to focus on Real Madrid'.

Phil Foden seemed to twist his knee a bit as he went down there. He's back on his feet though after some physio work and can play on.
