David Silva scored one goal and made two more as Manchester City put on a passing masterclass to overwhelm Newcastle United with a 5-0 Premier League victory on Wednesday.

Gabriel Jesus put the home side ahead in the 10th minute, stabbing home Silva’s clever pass, and Riyad Mahrez made it 2-0 in the 21st minute when Kevin de Bruyne pulled the ball back for him to sweep home from the penalty spot.

Matt Ritchie’s last-ditch attempt for Newcastle to dispossess Jesus in the second half hit fellow defender Federico Fernandez and flew into the goal to put City 3-0 up.
