This game has started the second half in just the saw way the first half ended – crazy. Chelsea have just scored, and now lead 3-2 with just 47 minutes on the clock.
It was truly from nothing. A quick free kick fed forward via Nicolas Jackson to Cole Palmer, who played in Noni Madueke.
The winger has been a threat all game and his confidence is high. That meant he wasn’t afraid to shoot through a defender from a tight angle – and it paid off. The ricochet took the ball into the net, and Chelsea lead for the third time today.
