Fana baffled after De Bruyne was awarded the MOTM against Chelsea

Fans have been baffled after Kevin De Bruyne was awarded the Man of the Match for his performance against Chelsea.

Pep Guardiola's side booked their place in the FA Cup final for the second consecutive year with a 1-0 win over the Blues at Wembley.

Bernardo Silva struck from close range six minutes from time to ensure City's hope of winning the double stayed intact.

Jermaine Jenas, who was on co-commentary for the BBC, awarded De Bruyne the  Man of the Match award, praising his defensive contribution.

The former Newcastle and Tottenham midfielder said: 'De Bruyne is my player of the match, but not for the usual reasons.

'It has been a spicy game and he has made so many tackles, but he's also had that bit of quality as well.'

Jenas' comments came despite the fact that the Belgian midfielder made just one tackle throughout the match.

And fans took to social media to question Jenas' decision, with some insisting De Bruyne was miles off it'.

One said: 'Is Jenas alright? De Bruyne as MotM is one of the worst opinions I've seen in a while, by his standards he's been miles off it.'

Another wrote: 'Kevin De Bruyne's had an absolute stinker today for me. Countless over hit & misplaced passes compared to his usual standard. Still Jermaine Jenas' man of the match'.

A third fan asked: 'De Bruyne man of the match? Did Jenas watch the game?'

De Bruyne proved pivotal going forward as his cross into the box resulted in Silva's winner.
