Chelsea defeated Leeds (3-2) in the add-on with Antonio Rüdiger starring. The defender claimed by Real Madrid has become the best attacker of the ‘blues’.
Rüdiger forced two penalties, one from Raphinha in 58 ‘and the other from Klich in 94’, which Jorginho converted to seal the ‘blue’ victory. A victory that allows Thomas Tuchel’s men (36 points) not to lose their grip in the title fight. City (38) is the leader followed by Liverpool (37).
Leeds de Bielsa sold their defeat at Stamford Bridge dearly. In fact, he took the lead at 28 ‘after Raphinha materialized a maximum penalty caused by a knockdown by Marcos Alonso on Daniel James. The Brazilian (7 goals) claimed as Pichichi of the ‘whites’ in Premier.
The ‘blues’, however, reached 1-1 just before the break, at 42′. Marcos Alonso recovered on the left and served a ‘death pass’ that Mount sent to the net.
In the absence of a reference in attack, Rüdiger ‘pulled’ the car. The defender ‘blue’ went across the field to force a penalty from Raphinha in the 58th minute and Jorginho scored the momentary 1-2.
But Chelsea are not doing well and Leeds took advantage. The young Gelhardt made it 2-2 in the 84th minute, culminating a great run by Tyler Roberts on the left.
Thomas Tuchel decided to burn his ships giving entry to Romelu Lukaku by Marcos Alonso in 87 ‘… but the one who decided was Rüdiger. The German played Lukaku. He pivoted backwards into the area and ‘dropped’ when he felt Klich’s contact. Penalty Jorginho did not forgive. Chelsea won in 94 ‘and is still in the mix.
