Na so Chelsea wey dey under the guidance of caretaker boss Calum McFarlane, after dem gel Enzo Maresca, come rev up for second half. Dem fit only win one match out of di last eight but dis match show say dem fit still deliver fire. Dem don manage close the gap to top four. E be like say Chelsea wan wake up.

City wey come back with Rodri, wey don miss since October, no fit finish dem chances again. Dem miss plenty chances for previous game against Sunderland, and for dis match, dem show say dem fit waste chances too. Phil Foden try shoot but e go wide, while Bernardo Silva dey try curved shot wey come nearly enter, but e jam bar.

Filip Jorgensen, wey dey stand for Chelsea goal because Robert Sanchez dey injured, come show hin worth as e save plenty balls wey dey come from City. Haaland dey fire one better shot wey go inside post, but luck no dey shine for hin side today.

Three minutes before half-time, Reijnders don melt mind as he scatter Chelsea defense and land powerful shot wey give dem lead. City fans dey shout like say dem don win lottery!

But as second half start, wahala come land for dem matter. Gvardiol go down with ankle injury and Chelsea come dey smell blood. Dem dey rush forward, and Pedro Neto fit miss chance wey make person cry. Chelsea dey target di new boy wey come replace Gvardiol, Khusanov, and na so dem dey push for equalizer.

Gianluigi Donnarumma, di City goalkeeper, come show hin reflex as e save plenty shots, but for dying seconds, Enzo Fernandez no let di chance pass as he dive for ball wey fall to am after Donnarumma make try save di shot.

As Fernandez score, City players dey fall to ground as dem dey shout for disappointment. With dis draw, City don remain six points behind league leaders Arsenal and dem don barely edge past Aston Villa for second space.
