Chelsea lead!
After having a harsh penalty given against them, there was a worry that the Blues would wilt.
Instead they blossomed. They equalised right away through Thiago Silva’s header, and now they’re leading after a quick Chelsea attack exposed City down their left. Josko Gvardiol got the ball stuck between his feet, setting up the perfect chance for Reece James to slide it across to Raheem Sterling.
There’s such a long way to go in this game, but this puts us in the perfect position.
