At 21:00 last night, in the 18th round of the English Premier League, Chelsea challenged Wolves as a guest. Chelsea were in control of the game against weaker opponents, but mistakes from defenders and repeated missed scoring opportunities from strikers. In the end, Wolves won 2-1 against visiting Chelsea thanks to goals from Lemina and Doherty.
In this game, the visiting Chelsea had a good chance to open the scoring in the fifth minute. Armando Broja did not shoot directly at the goalkeeper in the penalty area, opting to get rid of the Wolves defender who flew forward, but unfortunately Broja got rid of the second Wolves player who stepped forward to defend and thus missed the opportunity to shoot.
However, less than three minutes later, Chelsea had a second chance to score. Raheem Sterling once again cleared the Wolves defence with a beautiful through ball. It's a pity that Jacquesson, who got a single chance, reacted a step later and was destroyed by the opposing player.
After that, Armando Broja and Jacquesson continued to get good scoring opportunities in a row, but they all missed one by one. What's even more outrageous is that in the 33rd minute of the game, when three Chelsea players faced the opposing goalkeeper, Sterling's one-handed ball was saved by the opponent.
Chelsea, who repeatedly missed chances to score, were taken advantage of by their opponents in the 51st minute of the second half, and Lemina headed home the goal. Subsequently, there were still plenty of chances for the Chelsea players to find the back of the net, but in the end, they were all wasted.
In the 92nd minute of stoppage time, Chelsea's Benoit Badiashile made a mistake in the penalty area, allowing Wolves' Doherty to seize the opportunity and extend the score to 2-0. In the final minute, Chelsea substitute Nkunku scored a face-saving goal with a header unguarded.
In the end, Chelsea lost 2-1 away to Wolverhampton Wanderers. As the manager, Pochettino doesn't know how to feel when he sees such an inferior performance of his own playersIs it the reason for the player's own strength level, and the ability to adjust the player?It's really worth everyone**.
