Dominating the match with skills, a perfect performance and world-level power, the English Premier League runners-up Manchester City soared to an 8-1 win over Vietnam in a friendly match at Hanoi`s National My Dinh Stadium on July 27.
Aleksandar Kolarov, Raheem Sterling and David Silva scored twice each, while substitutes Marcos "Rony" Lopes and Jose Angel Pozo added two more to help the Premiership team to an easy win.
