Phil Foden's baby son received a kiss from Pep Guardiola as Manchester City edged closer to the Premier League title.
Foden, 18, started the pivotal win over Leicester on Monday night, which means City will be crowned champions if they are victorious at Brighton next weekend.
The Leicester clash was City's last home game of the season and the playing staff performed a lap of honour following the game to thank supporters for their support this season.
Foden joined other members of the squad in bringing their children onto the field.
The Stockport-born youngster, who has been one of the breakthrough stars of the Premier League this season, became a dad to a young boy in January this year.

Foden and his long-term girlfriend Rebecca Cooke, also 18, were said to be "overjoyed" when they welcomed their newborn son earlier this year.
And Foden was pictured for the first time publicly with his son, who was wearing a replica City kit, following the win over Leicester.
City boss Guardiola, who is said to be supportive to Foden as he juggles being a dad and focusing on his football, looked delighted to meet the youngster.
He first kissed the forehead of Foden's son - before planting one on Foden himself.

Guardiola has handed Foden a raft of first-team opportunities this season, and the midfielder has repaid him with consistent performances, including goalscoring showings on numerous occasions.
He notched his first Premier League goal in the win over Tottenham earlier this month; his seventh goal of the campaign.
Earlier this week, Foden was ranked as the 18th most valuable Under-20 footballer in the world by the CIES Football Observatory, with a market value of over £20million.
