But only one of them will go home with the 'Player of the Match' award.
That's because the 22-year-old gave the individual prize to the England international, having been told to share it by Sky Sports' Geoff Shreeves.
Foden joked: "We'll cut it in half," to which the star striker replied: "Pleasure."
