Yaya Toure celebrated his first Premier League appearance of the season by scoring both of Manchester City's goals in a 2-1 triumph over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park this evening.

The Ivorian scored late in each half to secure a return to winning ways for the visitors, while Connor Wickham's second-half equaliser was ultimately not enough to prevent Palace from falling to a fifth consecutive defeat.

Pep Guardiola hinted during his pre-match press conference that he could rotate his side for the match, and the Spaniard kept to his word by making six changes, including returns to the starting XI for Vincent Kompany and Toure.
