Kevin De Bruyne Scores Winner Against Former Club Chelsea
Manchester City Clinch 12th Premier League Win
Gabriel Jesus Nets Second Premier League Goal of the Season
Manchester City secured a crucial 1-0 victory against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, thanks to a stunning strike from Kevin De Bruyne. The Belgian midfielder, who spent two seasons with the Blues earlier in his career, produced a moment of brilliance to earn his side three valuable points.
The game was largely dominated by City, who controlled possession and created numerous chances. However, they were unable to find a breakthrough until the 70th minute when De Bruyne unleashed a powerful drive from outside the box that arrowed into the top corner of the net.
The goal proved to be the winner, as City held on to claim their 12th win of the Premier League season. The victory moves Pep Guardiola's side to within three points of league leaders Arsenal, who have a game in hand.
For Chelsea, the defeat was their third in their last four league games and leaves them languishing in 10th place in the table. The Blues will be desperate to bounce back when they host Manchester United in their next Premier League fixture on October 22.
