Manchester City's Crushing It in the Champions, Too

It's not only the Premiership that's turning out to be the Citizens' playground.

The Champions League is on that list, too.

Manchester City went head-to-head against relentless Napoli and emerged the victors with a 2-1 result. 

The only real difference was that City and its fans didn't get the goal fiesta that's been the mark they've left in four outta their first eight Premiership matches.

Raheem Sterling has been money in the early going this season, and he got the party started only nine minutes into the proceedings:

Dude truly knows when and how to pounce on opportunities.

Napoli didn't even have time to collect itself when City's latestt sensation, Gabriel Jesus, struck four minutes later:

Dudes are in the midst of putting constand helpings of delightful football on display these days. 

Stunned, Partenopei Gli Azzurri -- Light Blues, similar to another one of City's monikers -- were pure and simply stifled until one of their late attacks produced a penalty in the 73rd minute.

Amadou Diawara made short work of the opportunity.

Ironically, that was kinda like City made short work of them.
