The Belgian received medical attention after being visibly uncomfortable in the middle and was replaced by Phil Foden eventually in the 35th minute. The nature of his injury is still uncertain.

De Bruyne was also forced off injured, after being taken out in a collision with Antonio Ruediger, when City lost to Chelsea in the final two years ago. The playmaker suffered a concussion, a broken nose and broken eye was taken to a hospital on that occasion.
