Diego Costa, the league's leading marksman, scored his 11th of the season on the hour to equalise, whereas substitute Willian notched on the counter-attack 10 minutes later and Eden Hazard sealed the deal in the 90th minute.

Willian also celebrated in an emotional style with countrymen David Luiz, as both players took their black armbands off to celebrate the Chelsea’s second goal of the day.
Gary Cahill had given City a deserved lead just before halftime, slicing the ball into his own net with a clumsy attempted clearance, and the home side looked ready to wrap up the points after the break as Kevin De Bruyne missed from three metres when it seemed easier to score.
