MANCHESTER CITY PLAYER RATIINGS: Ederson 7 – The Brazilian had nothing to do, facing no shots on target in the 90 minutes played. AFP
Sergio Gomez 8 – The fullback looked bright going forward, and he saw his shot diverted into the back of the net from a double deflection just before half-time. EPA
Aymeric Laporte 7 – A solid performance on his return to the side. EPA
Ruben Dias 8 – Assured in the heart of defence on his 100th appearance for City. The centre-back mopped up any attempted attacks from the Danish opposition. PA
Joao Cancelo 7 – Put in a disciplined performance and produced the assist for Haaland’s opening goal after just seven minutes. EPA
Ilkay Gundogan 8 – Outstanding with and without the ball. The midfielder put in a strong display in the absence of Kevin de Bruyne. AFP
Bernardo Silva 6 – Struck the post after 12 minutes and arguably should have done better from five yards out, as the Portuguese international fired over the bar. Replaced after 66 minutes. EPA
Riyad Mahrez 6 – Looked confident on the left-hand side, and the Algerian made it four in the 54th minute with a goal from the penalty spot. AFP
Jack Grealish 7 – A positive performance, but the Englishman was frustrated not to get on the scoresheet, as a heroic performance from Grabara between the sticks denied him a goal. EPA
Julian Alvarez 7 – A quieter night for the Argentine, but he got his first goal in the Champions League after 76 minutes, converting Mahrez’s cross from a yard out. EPA
Erling Haaland 9 – Scored after just seven minutes with his first touch of the game, and added a second just after the half-hour mark, nudging home Grabara’s parry from a Gomez shot. The brilliant Norwegian had to settle for a brace after being replaced by Palmer at the break. Reuters
SUBS: Cole Palmer (Haaland 46’) 8 – The 20-year-old midfielder impressed after coming on at half-time. The midfielder was straight into the action and forced a save from Grabara after just 49 minutes. PA
Rico Lewis (Cancelo 57’) 6 – The 17-year-old came on just before the hour mark and did not put a foot wrong in his Champions League debut. PA
Joshua Wilson-Esbrand (Silva 66’) 7 – A comfortable cameo as the 19-year-old was the second teenager to make his Champions League debut off the bench after replacing Silva on 66 minutes. EPA
FC COPENHAGEN PLAYER RATINGS: Kamil Grabara 8 – A superb performance despite conceding five goals. The Polish keeper made a number of outstanding stops and can only be faulted for the second goal after parrying Gomez’s shot into the feet of an awaiting Haaland. AFP
Kevin Diks 4 – Deflected Gomez’s shot onto a helpless Khocholava to help City to a third goal before the break. AFP
Denis Vavro 5 – Struggled with the pace and movement of the City attackers. PA
Davit Khocholava 4 – Unfortunate to turn Gomez’s cross into his own net, likely denying Haaland another first-half hattrick. PA
Victor Kristiansen 7 – The fullback worked hard for his side. Had a chance just after the break, but Cancelo just about put him off. EPA
Marko Stamenic 5 – Gave away a penalty and received a yellow card after dragging down Laporte at the back post in the second half. AFP
Lukas Lerager 6 – Got back well after 65 minutes to deny Silva a tap-in on the back post. AFP
Viktor Claesson 5 – Given the run around by a dominant Gundogan in the midfield. EPA
Isak Bergmann Johannesson 8 – The 19-year-old could have had a chance, but he did not gamble on the far post after Gomez chose to leave Daramy’s cross. PA
Mohamed Daramy 6 – Looked the greatest attacking threat for his side, but the forward was replaced after 55 minutes. Reuters
Mamoudou Karamoko 4 – The striker had little impact before being forced off at half-time. Reuters
SUBS: Valdemar Lund (Karamoko 46’) 4 – Anonymous after his introduction. EPA
Hakon Arnar Haraldsson (Daramy 56') 4 – The teenager had a tough ask after being thrown on up front with his side 4-0 down. PA
Peter Ankersen (Diks 66’) 4 – The defender came on with the game out of reach. AFP
