Cesc Fabregas has led the praise for Mason Mount's superb assist to set up Kai Havertz' opening goal for Chelsea against Manchester City in the Champions League final.

Mount's wonderfully timed, defence-splitting ball found German forward Havertz, who rounded goalkeeper Ederson and slotted into an empty net to give Thomas Tuchel's side the lead against City in the European showpiece in Porto on Saturday.

And fellow pundit Rio Ferdinand heaped praise on midfielder Mount's pass to create the goal on BT Sport at half-time.
