Rodney Marsh has taken to Twitter to give his reaction to Manchester City’s win against Thomas Tuchel’s Chelsea at Stamford Bridge today.

What’s the story?

City have got the better of Chelsea 1-0 away from home in the Premier League this afternoon.

Gabriel Jesus scored the only goal of the match in the 53rd minute.

Reaction

Former City forward Marsh was following the match, and he believes that Pep Guardiola’s side were “superb” against Chelsea.

The pundit has also given City defender Ruben Dias a perfect 10 out of 10 for his performance.

How did Ruben Dias play?

Dias is one of the best central defenders in the world, and he showed that for City against Chelsea this afternoon.

The 24-year-old was facing Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku, and he knew that he had to be on top of his game.

Dias kept the former Manchester United and Inter Milan striker quiet.

The central defender took one shot which was not on target, had a pass accuracy of 93.4%, won one header, took 83 touches, and made one tackle and four clearances.

City were the better side over the course of the 90 minutes and deservedly picked up all three points from the Premier League game.
