Meanwhile in the game Chelsea's Cole Palmer took the plaudits as he netted a late penalty to earn the hosts a point.

He had been booked earlier in the game for scuffing up the penalty spot before Erling Haaland's penalty.

Palmer was also on the receiving end of a shove from Haaland at the end of the game as he tried to listen in on City's players discussing tactics.
