"Under-21s coach McFarlane was on the touchline at the Etihad Stadium after the club announced Maresca's departure on New Year's Day. Chelsea are expected to unveil Strasbourg coach Liam Rosenior as the Italian's replacement before the trip to Fulham on Wednesday. And in potentially his only game as boss, McFarlane watched Enzo Fernández grab a 94th-minute goal to dent City's title hopes."
"Reijnders in form when City need it The Dutchman has been in and out of the Man City first team since his summer move from Milan, but he showed again against Chelsea what a goalscoring threat he can be. He got 10 goals in Serie A last season -- a good return for a central midfielder -- and after netting his fifth in the Premier League against Chelsea, he's on course to do the same again."
Calum McFarlane served as interim manager for Chelsea at the Etihad following Enzo Maresca's departure, with Liam Rosenior expected to be appointed. Manchester City took the lead just before half-time through Tijjani Reijnders' close-range finish. City limited Chelsea to few clear chances but conceded a 94th-minute equaliser from Enzo Fernández, who finished from a right-side cross. The draw left City six points behind Arsenal and marked consecutive dropped points. Reijnders has found form since mid-December and has scored five Premier League goals this season, continuing his goalscoring contributions from midfield.
