Manchester City forward Riyad Mahrez has admitted that Julian Alvarez requested to take the first penalty in today's 4-0 victory over Chelsea in the FA Cup.
City were fully in control from the first minute against Chelsea who made several changes. The Blues got the scoring started through Mahrez who curled home a fabulous free kick after 23 minutes.
Pep Guardiola's team made it two from the spot with Alvarez squeezing the ball in. It was three before the break when Kyle Walker's cross was turned home by Phil Foden.
