Jack Grealish has told Cole Palmer to keep taking his opportunities and he'll be a success at Manchester City.
Pep Guardiola's side added another trophy to the collection on Wednesday night as they overcame a spirited and unfortunate Sevilla to claim the UEFA Super Cup. The Spanish side were the better team for the vast majority of the match and with better finishing and fewer Ederson heroics they would have won.
But instead, the Brazilian denied the La Liga side on several occasions as City were repeatedly cut open but he could do nothing to prevent Youssef En-Nesyri's powerful first-half header out. City levelled late on when Palmer responded with a header of his own, looping Rodri's cross over the goalkeeper and in at the far post.
The goal sparked some life into the Blues who could have won late on when Nathan Ake's diving header was tipped over but were successful on penalties. City converted all five of their spot-kicks before Nemanja Gudelj slapped the crossbar to seal the win.

Grealish singled Palmer out for praise after the game, saying he is doing exactly what he needs to do with his chances on the pitch. "Cole Palmer was brilliant tonight," he told TNT Sport. "Another great goal from him a great finish. A good night all around.
"Of course, that's what you've got to do as a young lad. I was in that position myself at Aston Villa years ago. You've got to try and perform when you're given the chance and he's certainly done that in the last few days.
"He's such a nice kid, honestly, he's a brilliant guy and I'm so happy for him the way he's started this season."
