A big game for Chelsea, a big game for Armando Broja and he’s scored – almost.
A slick pass from Ben Chilwell set up Raheem Sterling who pulled the ball back for Broja to finish. As the striker swung at it, Johnny Howson lunged in to tackle, but his toe on the ball ended up carrying it past his own keeper.
It’s a shame – Broja needed the goal and Howson won’t have wanted the OG.
But there’s still plenty of time left in this match for Broja to get a real goal.

GOAL!!!
Great work from Chilwell and Sterling ends with the unfortunate Howson putting into his own net.

Chilwell our best player so far. Excellent movement off the ball. Can the others raise their level to match him?
