Manchester Citys fans couldnt hide their delight as Wayne Rooney was picked apart by Leroy Sane and Kevin De Bruyne at Goodison Park.
Pep Guardiolas side took another step closer to the Premier League title after registering a comfortable 3-1 victory over Everton.
First-half goals from Leroy Sane, Gabriel Jesus and Raheem Sterling sealed the three points for City.
But Citys supporters were given another treat in the opening 45 minutes as Rooney was on the receiving end of a nutmeg from Sane before De Bruyne flicked the ball over the former Manchester United strikers head.
Rooney gave De Bruyne a shove after the incident but was spared any more torment as Sam Allardyce replaced him with Tom Davies after 57 minutes.
City are now able to win the Premier League title next Saturday if they beat Manchester United at Old Trafford.

It (winning the title next Saturday) would mean the world to our fans, Vincent Kompany said after Citys win against Everton.
Ive lived in Manchester long enough to know how important it is to them (the fans) and how important it is to the other team that it doesnt happen.
We need that momentum and good feeling so we need to have a good Champions League game.
We have a big game in midweek and we have to deal with Man United next weekend so well take it game by game but we have done very well so far.
