Foden stars as City beat Dortmund | JQJO

Phil Foden lit up the Etihad with two goals in Manchester City’s 4-1 win over Borussia Dortmund, a performance that pushed him back into the England conversation. The 25-year-old now has four goals and three assists in 13 games and hopes Friday’s squad for World Cup qualifiers against Serbia and Albania will bring a recall after two omissions. Pep Guardiola hailed his readiness, while pundits Michael Brown and Leon Osman praised his influence. With City having lost only one of their past 13 games, Foden’s form and smile suggest last season’s struggles are fading.
