Chelsea stalls at Fulham and sinks a little more!
by Edouard Guala (iDalgo)
Nothing is going well for the Blues. With only one victory in the last nine games, Chelsea can’t do it anymore. On the field of Fulham, the men of Graham Potter have once again lost. However, the arrival of Joao Félix foreshadowed good things. But nothing went as planned. Quickly trailing behind after a goal from Wilian, a former member of the house, the residents of Stamford Bridge were caught off guard (1-0, 20′). Returning from the locker room, Koulibaly allowed his team to pick up the score from a corner (1-1, 47′). Expected as a savior, Joao Félix’s debut took a completely different turn on the hour mark when the Portuguese was sent off for an avoidable over-commitment (58′). A final achievement by Carlos Vinicius dampened the hopes of Thiago Silva’s teammates (2-1, 73′). This new defeat is a bad operation for Chelsea who find themselves in tenth place. Opposite, Fulham confirms its good first part of the season and climbs to sixth place.
