The outstanding work of Daniel Arzani was the main highlight of the match as he assisted Bruno Fornaroli in the opener that separated the two sides at the break.

Captain Michael Jakobsen extended City's lead with a thunderous header from Luke Brattan's excellent delivery. 

City's superb passing led to a third goal through Stefan Mauk. 

With no shots on target, the Wanderers lacked any spark and were totally outclassed by the hosts.
