Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola said he is "so satisfied with the commitment of the players" after the Premier League champions maintained their unbeaten start to the season with a battling victory over winless Newcastle.
Full-back Kyle Walker was the match-winner with his first goal for the club, picking the ball up 30 yards out and drilling a low finish into the far corner of the net.
