Fernando Torres capitalises on a defensive mix-up to give Chelsea a late winner against Manchester City.

Torres had been the game’s central figure, setting up Andre Schurrle’s first goal since his £18m summer move from Bayer Leverkusen as well as missing a sitter and hitting the woodwork as Chelsea earned a deserved half-time advantage…….
