Martin Keown reminded Chelsea of their Kevin de Bruyne mistake with his brutal dig made after the attacking midfielder opened the scoring in Man City Champions League quarter-final tie in the Champions League.
Diego Simeone's side had held out for 69 minutes and looked a big threat to nick a goal in the second half, just as they did against Ralf Rangnick's Man United in the previous round. However, a moment of inspiration from Pep Guardiola, who had admitted to overthinking things in the Champions League at the start of the week, broke the deadlock between the two sides who now prepare to do battle in the Spanish capital. The Phil Foden sub was just the trick.
The winner of this quarter-final will play the victors of the Chelsea vs Real Madrid, so De Bruyne's strike in this one will have pricked up the ears of the Blues faithful who will bemoan Jose Mourinho's decision to sell the Belgian for a long-time yet. And Arsenal icon Martin Keown reminded the Blues fans of the big mistake made back in 2014 to allow the 30-year-old to leave for Wolfsburg where his stock went up.
