After a slow start to the campaign, Chelsea have been finding some form in recent times and were looking to pull off another shock against the reigning Premier League champions.

The Blues didn't get the three points they wanted, but they did manage to hold City to a draw in an eight-goal thriller. The lead changed multiple times during the game and, when Rodri netted to make it 4-3 with four minutes remaining, it looked as if the away side would take all three points.
