Manchester City‘s Premier League title defense suffered a major blow following a 1-1 draw against a resilient Chelsea side at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday.

Rodri’s late equaliser earned the reigning Premier League champions a 1-1 draw but Man City title race is still in doubt.

Heading into the game, many Chelsea supporters were worried as to what the outcome would be, but Mauricio Pochettino’s side quickly provided the energy needed to show that they were prepared to fight throughout the season.

Raheem Sterling scored the opener for Chelsea against his former club to hand Pochettino’s men a deserved lead, but Rodri dramatically rescued a point with a late leveller for Man City to deny Chelsea victory and maintain his side’s long unbeaten home record.

City still lost ground in the title race after seeing Liverpool and Arsenal both post emphatic wins earlier on Saturday, but this has to go down as a point gained given how close they came to defeat.

Man City pushed for the winner, sparking a series of chances in the Chelsea box, but had to settle for the draw in a thrilling game.

Victor Osimhen delivered a stunning performance on Wednesday as his brace secured Galatasaray a 2-1 victory over Fenerbahce in the final stage of the Turkish Cup, eliminating José Mourinho’s side from the competition.

Osimhen opened the scoring in the 10th minute, putting Galatasaray ahead with a well-taken shot from the edge of the box.

The Nigerian striker then doubled his tally in the 27th minute from the penalty spot, giving his team a comfortable 2-0 lead before halftime.

Fenerbahce managed to pull one back just before the break, with Sebastian Szymański finding the net in first-half stoppage time (45+1’), but it was not enough to turn the tide.

Despite late attempts to equalize, including substitutions involving Mert Yandaş and Kerem Demirbay in the 90+2 minute, Mourinho’s side fell short as Galatasaray held on for the win.
