Argh. It’s been coming.
Chelsea were just starting to get into this game, and they had made two attacking subs to take the game up a gear, but now Man City have struck.
Kevin de Bruyne picked up a superb ball from Joao Cancelo goal side of N’Golo Kante, giving him a sight of goal, and the Belgian took it beautifully.
As always in these circumstances we want to blame Kepa’s short reach, but it was a lovely finish.
