What a cracking game from City!

They totally outplayed Chelsea from start to finish and the scoreline could've been even worse for the men from London!

Last season's Champions are in trouble...

That's all from me folks, hope you enjoyed the match!

Still just the one goal lead...

Poor from the Colombian!

16 Aug 2015
