The pictures that emerged in the aftermath had fans fearing the worst, with many reports circulating that the 29-year-old had fractured several ribs. But the striker in his post clarified that only one rib has been fractured.
A fractured rib will keep the the striker, who has been in sensational form this season, out for a month at least.
Meanwhile, Premier League leaders City travel to defending champions Chelsea for a crunch clash on Saturday night and will hope the loss of their top scorer does not derail their title-charge.
The semi-automated system gives a result in around 30 seconds, while VAR calls can take several minutes, frustrating players and also fans, who are often uninformed about what is happening.
