First Half: Chelsea Show Promise but Lack Finishing Edge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Chelsea started brightly and looked the more dangerous side early on. Cole Palmer<\/strong> came close with a powerful strike into the side netting, while Jo\u00e3o Pedro<\/strong> was heavily involved in attacking moves, including a build-up that led to a disallowed goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Blues continued to press, with Pedro Neto<\/strong> weaving through midfield before testing Gianluigi Donnarumma<\/strong>. However, despite their attacking intent, Chelsea failed to convert their chances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

City, on the other hand, grew into the game late in the half. Bernardo Silva<\/strong> forced a strong save from Robert S\u00e1nchez<\/strong>, but the first half ended goalless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
