Manchester City starts fight with Chelsea following dangerous tackle

James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.

Chelsea vs. Manchester City ended in bedlam when Sergio Aguero committed a dangerous flying tackle in stoppage time. Aguero took down David Luiz and was given a red card, but things got wilder from there.

After the sides exchanged words, Fernandinho took things too far and went after Cesc Fabregas on the sideline. The Chelsea player didn’t respond to the shoving, but Fernandinho kept getting in his face — putting his hand on Fabregas’ neck.

He was sent off with the second red card in as many minutes and will miss three games for violent conduct. What a bizarre finish.
