Manchester City thrashed Chelsea 3-1 at the Stamford Bridge on Sunday evening. Pep Guardiola was missing some players due to Covid-19 but managed to outclassed Frank Lampard side that lacked cutting edge.
The Citizens went ahead after the 34 minutes thanks to strikes from Ilkay Gundogan, Phil Foden and star of the show Kevin De Bruyne.

Gundogan who was in the most advanced position when turning away from Thiago Silva to fire past Edouard Mendy for the opener. 

A second goal followed for Guardiola's side 157 seconds later, Foden sweeping home De Bruyne's low cross at the front post following a poor sliding clearance from Silva in the build-up. 


De Bruyne rounded off a swift counter that he started near his own box for City's third, the playmaker converting from close range after Raheem Sterling's shot came back off the post. 

Callum Hudson-Odoi scored a late consolation for Chelsea but that was the only disappointment for the visitors. 

Manchester City have now made it three league wins in a row to move up to fifth in the table, within four points of top spot with a game in hand. Chelsea, meanwhile, remain down in eighth position.
