All the goals as Chelsea destroy Man City 3-1

Catch all the goals as Antonio Conte's men continued their superb revival with a sensational away win over Man City.
Chelsea’s extended their incredible run of unbeaten games to eight with a great win over Manchester City on Saturday.

The Blues had to come back from a goal down at the Etihad but won the game 3-1 thanks to a clinical second half performance.

It was a game marred by unsavory scenes of scuffles between players towards the end but Antonio Conte’s men showed great character to grab all three points.

Gary Cahill put the ball into his own net on the brink of half time thanks to a cruel deflection on Jesus Navas’ right-wing 

This handed the initiative to Chelsea, who put more energy into their play in the second half to grab an equalizer in the 60th minute.

Cesc Fabregas, restored to the starting XI in place of Nemanja Matic, picked Diego Costa out with a superb ball over the top of the City defence.

It was a carbon copy of their chemistry from Chelsea’s title-winning 2014/15 season as Costa chested the ball down and brushed off Nicolas Otamendi to score past Claudio Bravo.

The visitors did not look back after that, with Costa setting up Willian’s 70th-minute goal with an excellent through pass.

After that Conte’s men stayed compact and had to do some last-ditch defending as City piled on the pressure.

In the 90th minute, Eden Hazard got his name on the score-sheet, clinically finishing off Marcos Alonso’s pass to put the game beyond doubt.

With frustration creeping in, Sergio Aguero was shown a straight red card for his challenge on David Luiz in extra time.A minute later, Fernandinho too was given his marching orders after a physical altercation with Fabregas. Both City players will now miss the games against Leicester, Watford and Arsenal.

Hazard, who is enjoying a renaissance in 2016/17, praised his team’s fight as they maintained their hold on the #1 spot on the table.

“It is a good game for us, we did well,” Hazard told Sky Sports post-match.

We played well to come here and at half-time at 1-0, it’s not easy to win the game. But we did very well.

“The guys gave everything and this was the key.”

The Belgian reserved special praise for Costa, who received the Man of the Match award for his goal, assist and brilliant all-round performance.

“[Costa] gives everything on the pitch, again today he scores and assists,” Hazard added.

“He’s been on fire since the start of the season and I want him to stay on top.”

Luiz also praised Chelsea’s performance and also their ability to stay grounded even as tensions erupted at the end of the contest.
