Riyad Mahrez scored an absolute worldie against Manchester City in the first half of their FA Cup tie.
Manchester City faced off against Chelsea in their third-round tie in the FA Cup on Sunday.
This is the second meeting between the two sides in the space of a few days as they played them in the Premier League earlier in the week.
Chelsea lost that game 1-0 and would’ve been hoping to redeem themselves against City in the FA Cup.
Although they started well, their hopes were dashed when Mahrez curled an absolute peach of a free kick into the top corner after 23 minutes.

This is the Algerian winger’s third goal against Chelsea this season and his first in the FA Cup.
The winner of this game will face either Arsenal or Oxford in the next round.
