Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola had a lot of praise for two of his team's debutants.

The young duo of Liam Delap and Zack Steffen made their first bows for the senior team in the Carabao Cup.

City faced off with second division Bournemouth, and emerged narrow 2-1 winners.

"He's a different striker to what we have in terms of physicality. We see in training how good a finisher he is. Now he has to be calm and keep working," Guardiola said of Delap to reporters.

"We are delighted with his performance - he played really well."

On Steffen, Guardiola added: "Well the goal we conceded was almost unstoppable. We didn't defend the shot properly. After, he saved on a counter attack.

"He was calm. He was safe. He gave a good performance."
