With Chelsea backed into a corner and City unable to regain the tempo they had with both Axel and Merino on the pitch, the match ended with a scoreline of two goals to nothing.
Yes, none of the sides were able to find the back of the net after the commotion but it didn't mean anything for City because they ultimately ended up winning the game.
"It's another victory for Manchester City to make sure they don't drop behind Liverpool in points. The intensity of the game sort of slowed down after Merino got injured and Norlan got sent off but they got the job done and that's all that matters."
Despite all the fighting that happened mainly because of Norlan, both sides still ended the game on good terms, one of Chelsea's younger midfielders even asked Andrea for a shirt swap and he didn't have any problem going along with it.
