Jesus hat trick helps City win final group match

Gabriel Jesus scored a hat trick as Manchester City finished off Champions League group stage action on a high note with a 4-1 win at Dinamo Zagreb on Wednesday.

The English side had already won Group C and secured passage to the round of 16 of the competition coming in the match, but hosts Dinamo needed the three points to advance.

Instead, Jesus' three-goal night left the Croatian club without European competition as group runners-up Atalanta beat Shakhtar Donetsk, the latter dropping into the Europa League.

Dinamo scored first on the night when Spain international Dani Olmos's volley blistered past City keeper Claudio Bravo in the 10th minute.

But the visitors answered back in force as Jesus equalised on a cross from Riyad Mahrez in the 34th minute, a goal not with controversy as a Dinamo player appeared to go down with an injury in the run-up.

Brazil international Jesus made it two on the night -- and 100 goals for club and country -- in the 50th minute with a nifty move and shot past keeper Dominik Livakovic. Four minutes later, Benjamin Mendy set up Jesus on a close-range shot for the third goal.

England youngster Phil Foden gave City their fourth with a tap-in goal in front of the net thanks to Bernardo Silva's run and cut-back pass.
