Before the start of the match, pundits have predicted Chelsea to win the match but that was not the case after the 90 mins encounter at Stanford Bridge.

Chelsea entered the game as the favorite but what we saw during the first half seems to say otherwise. It was as if Chelsea came in for a draw or perhaps they were waiting for an opportunity to play a counter attack that could lead to a goal. The first half ended with Manchester city having 70% of the possession.

As luck was not in favor of the defensive Chelsea, Gabriel Jesus Strike in the 53rd minute was deflect and gave Eduardo Mendy no option than to watch the ball pass him and give Manchester city the winning goal. It was after the goal that the sleeping Chelsea found strength for the match but it was too late for them. The Match ended 0-1 in favor of Manchester City and it was the first winning of Pep Guardiola against Thomas Tuchel in Four meetings.

Indeed I feel sad that Chelsea have to lose this match which they could have drawn or win had they played with the momentum they used after the goal
