PORTO, Portugal (WNEWS) – Chelsea beat Manchester City by a goal to nil to clinch the Champions League for the second time on Saturday, thanks to Kai Havertz’s first-half goal.
Mason Mount’s through-ball in the 42nd minute to Havertz who skipped past City’s goalkeeper Ederson before slotting the ball into an empty net in the 42nd minute.
This is Chelsea’s second Champions League win, with its first coming nine years ago in 2012. Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel who lost the 2020 final with Paris Saint Germain, won the big after taking over Chelsea midway through the season.
During the game, City lacked the control that Guardiola’s tiki-taka style of play usually gives him. An out of form Sterling was dismal adding to Man City’s woes after Kevin DeBryne’s injury forced Guardiola to replace him.
Manchester City, one of the best teams on the planet, are yet to win the Champions League.
