Manchester City forward Kevin De Bruyne has admitted that his side played poorly during their 2-1 win over Borussia Monchengladbach in the Champions League.

The Sky Blues secured their first European win of the campaign with a last-minute penalty from Sergio Aguero, but the Belgian dubbed the performance their worst of the season.

"We only played the last half-hour, in the first hour it was very difficult for us. This was our worst match this season," BBC Sport quotes De Bruyne as saying.

City came from behind to win in Germany, with Lars Stindl opening the scoring for the hosts before Nicolas Otamendi drew the Premier League outfit level.
