Events

Match Events

  • 0' Temperatures are rising at Stamford Bridge as Chelsea FC face off against Manchester City FC in what promises to be a fascinating contest.
  • 5' Manchester City FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 5.
  • 10' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Enzo Fernandez suffering a number of foals already.
  • 15' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Chelsea FC and Manchester City FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 18' Magnificent from Erling Haaland! That is 257 goals in 83 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 23' Both keepers have barely been tested. Chelsea FC and Manchester City FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 28' With 1 assists to his name this season, Christopher Nkunku is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Manchester City FC.
  • 33' Josko Gvardiol needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 38' It is a cagey affair so far. Chelsea FC in their 4-2-3-1 trying to find a way past Manchester City FC's compact 3-2-4-1.
  • 43' Manchester City FC has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 1 of the last 1 meetings.
  • 46' The whistle greets Savio as he departs to be replaced by Phil Foden.
  • 51' Manchester City FC looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Antoine Semenyo scoring 1 goals.
  • 56' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 56 minutes.
  • 58' A tactical swap from Chelsea FC — Pedro Neto on, Christopher Nkunku off on 58 minutes.
  • 63' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Enzo Maresca will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 66' The referee calls foul for Erling Haaland. He receives a card.
  • 66' Chelsea FC make a change. Nicolas Jackson trudges off to be replaced by Marc Guiu on 66 minutes.
  • 67' The whistle greets Romeo Lavia as he departs to be replaced by Kiernan Dewsbury Hall.
  • 72' Chelsea FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 77' The travelling Manchester City FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 80' Chelsea FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Renato Veiga is hanging Cucurella on the field on 80 minute.
  • 84' Mateo Kovacic makes no mistake. The score reads 0-2 and Manchester City FC are in front.
  • 89' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Moises Caicedo.
