Captains Kevin De Bruyne and Cesar Azpilicueta
who are leaning out that it will mean absolutely everything.
It's a walk they've dreamed of.
Galleros surprised us.
No Rodri or Fernandinho in the starting line-up
to the holding midfielders that catches the eye.
It's only the second game this season.
Di Amingolo-Kante are both fit and starved for Chelsea.
Thomas Thiago Silva is the oldest player on the pitch at 36.
The final's been held in Portugal
but it's the first time it's been played in...
So the whistle blows and the stones for the first time.
Sterling plays the ball in.
Mahrez trying to find a way round Rhys-James.
They've got men forward here, Chelsea.
Havertz just able to...
From Chelsea getting in behind.
Havertz knows he's got to try and stretch and play.
He's in behind them. Rhys-James gets back.
That touch would have been a little bit better onto his left foot.
Gets it back again from Mount, Werner with a chance.
Werner just puts a lovely ball pull-back from Havertz.
He's just not catching him.
Manchester City the other way.
In goes the ball, brilliant defender.
Amigolo-Kante found himself in a great position.
That's an excellent cheat for Werner.
It works its way here to Mount.
Chelsea might be in.
Werner with a cheat!
But Werner really should have scored.
It was a fabulous move.
City not allowing City to turn on the ball.
Here he is again.
It's been the Timo Werner show up to now.
Timo Werner.
He's really sharp, isn't he?
His movement's good.
Yes, he's in there for his height tonight.
That's a good take by Eddas, scampering away.
De Bruyne, queuing up in the middle.
Better, though, by City, winning the ball back, counter-attacking.
Chilwell's cross towards N'Golo Kante.
Two defenders back there, Kyle Walker had got back.
Ruben.
Phil Foden's in here!
Brilliant challenge, Rudiger.
Brilliant tackle.
What a piece of defending.
Foden in particular, 21 yesterday and now hoping to win the biggest prize in club...
Yeah, he just gets clipped by Dayot.
It's taken by James.
Walker took it in stride, he's going to test Ben Chilwell and get the cross in!
Yeah, there it is.
Inches away.
In by James.
Through quick.
Lewis Stirling in a promising position.
Yeah, that's pretty quick, I can't do anything about that, can he?
Hits his hip anyway.
A little pocket of space.
He manages to pick out Chilwell with a good ball.
It's up against Chilwell.
It's a lovely turn, that kind of situation.
They went quick this time, you know, normally it's...
They just took a knock away somehow.
And they did just take a look at it, it's on the run.
Havertz, gliding through.
Thiago Silva's in trouble here.
He's gone down again, yeah.
Floated in by Chilwell, it's a good ball.
Wernerdijk, Havertz, in a pocket of space!
Anderson came and didn't get there!
Chance for chance!
It looked like it was coming, I mean, Chelsea have had the best chance.
Anderson couldn't get there!
...on the cover, keeps the goal, gets a little bit lucky, but...
It's like the parting of the Red Sea, wasn't it?
Really poor goal defensively, but...
He paid a lot of money for it last summer!
Havertz.
Werner.
...should probably even turn and face John Stones up,
because he is a couple of yards behind him.
This was nice, that was nice,
and you just need a bit of composure to control...
Kyle Walker.
It's Manchester City 0.
Chelsea 1.
And Kai Havertz, the young German international...
Yeah, City have sent Cancelo, Fernandinho and Gabriel Gessier.
Yeah, ten minutes of legend, you're thinking,
you're looking down at your bench and you're, what, there's five slots.
The fact that Chelsea have had to make one change already with...
It was left there for Fowden.
Walker with the cross, that's a good...
Excellent challenge from N'Golo Kante.
Perfectly timed free-kick against the in-swinger with the left foot.
Ruben Dias in the middle of it for...
It's headed on by Ruben Dias towards John Stones,
and then Sterling has a false up, Raheem Sterling.
Has to pick up the mantle now, vacated by De Bruyne.
Here's Jorginho.
Kyle Walker.
Free-kick taken by Zinchenko.
Manchester City.
Márez, it's a really good ball, filling...
Fernandinho.
...has lost it.
2-6 quick, but...
Nobody on the neo is balling towards Gabriel Jesus,
it's away by James, then by Walker, plays it out to Márez.
Headed away by...
He's already got it once tonight.
Here in Pulitzer, he's trying to dink it, he's just trying to dink it over the goal.
When you see it, though, Ederson does really well, big, and the old...
Fowden.
It's for N'Golo Kante, Sterling looking to get in behind,
and pulls it back, Jesus!
...by Sterling.
Difficult.
Tried the shot, why not?
It was to be written, yeah.
Walker's cross.
Glenn mentioned before, the set-pieces.
It's a better ball.
It is a better ball.
Walker on the run now, trying to go with him, Chilwell.
Ahead of Chilwell, frustratingly so for Chelsea.
Let's have a look, did he catch him?
Yeah, he just catches him there on his foot.
Fowden's been headed away by Stones.
And then the shot that was way near.
Rhys James mistimes it, Aguero lifts it in.
The ball, Rhys James, you can see what he was thinking of.
A touch there, Aguero.
And it goes again towards Gabriel Scheisse.
In by Ruben Dias, right the way through, still not cleared.
Mahrez pulls from Ruben Dias, brilliant ball across the front.
Chilwell misses it.
And OK, Coutinho.
Mahrez swings it in, Aguero is held in by Walker.
Away by Kante, but not very far.
Launched forward by Ederson.
Wentkovic at Walker.
Gabriel Scheisse, he'll get the first one away.
There's the shot!
Oh!
Everybody was flat-footed because he hit it very awkwardly.
That's the goal, he's balled.
Ball, ball.
Has served it tonight, all over the pitch, every player.
You can give an eight on them.
Yeah, fantastic by Chelsea.
The Men's League trophy, not to be for Sergio Aguero,
and he's on top of the world.
Well, the celebrations are in full flow for Chelsea, Rio.
Wow, what an absolute...
How compact this Chelsea team were today,
there was no spaces between them.
And it's farewell to Sergio Aguero, who's sitting...
I've got to say, he was distraught coming off, obviously,
but Christian's in his...
And he lifts Kingsgrove!
He's really finished this off and put his team on three.
