Manchester City: Fans praise Joao Cancelo after Everton win
Share
Bouncing back from a harrowing 3-2 defeat away to Wolves, Manchester City have secured two much-needed wins on the trot – overcoming Everton 2-1 in their latest outing thanks to a brace from Gabriel Jesus.
The Brazilian striker netted two second-half goals in quick succession as they eventually buried the Toffees and halted Carlo Ancelotti’s momentum as manager, with Richarlison’s goal back providing a nervy ending to proceedings.

However, away from Jesus following his sensational impact, one man has also taken his fair share of the plaudits from the New Year’s Day encounter – with full-back Joao Cancelo getting a warm reception from fans during the 90 minutes.
Cancelo, who signed from Juventus in a £60 million deal last summer, has had to work hard for game time due to the form of fellow right-back Kyle Walker – but now some supporters think he should be starting more regularly over the Englishman.
Here’s what they had to say on Twitter surrounding his performance.
