Gabriel Jesus continued to deputise for the injured Sergio Aguero by netting a superb hat-trick for Manchester City in the Champions League on Wednesday, as they defeated Dinamo Zagreb 4-1 away from home.
All of the Brazilian's goals displayed one or more aspects of his predatory instinct to be in the right place at the right time. His first and third goals showed the benefits of running ahead of the defender as he glanced a header home and then peeled away to the back post to side-foot a strike expertly into the net.
The second was the most impressive of the three, though, as he exchanged a lovely one-two with Phil Foden before dribbling into the area to curl a lovely finish into the bottom corner.
Not simply a goalscorer, however, he completed 25 out of 30 attempted passes during his 66 minutes on the park.
