Watch: Khusanov gifts Chelsea goal with brutal error on Man City debut
Abdukodir Khusanov's Premier League debut couldn't have gotten off to a worse start.
The 20-year-old Uzbekistan international, making his first appearance for Manchester City since completing a transfer from Lens worth a reported €40 million, gifted Chelsea a third-minute goal in Saturday's match with an unfortunate error when he tried to head the ball back to his goalkeeper but left it too short.
