A fire broke out at a merchandise shop outside the Etihad Stadium a little earlier. It's not clear whether anyone was inside at the time, but it's certainly not the best start to the evening at Manchester City.
A presentation was due to be held nearby but this has been cancelled and the area evacuated. The fire has since been put out.
