It was a strange battle that took place on the Bournemouth pitch against Chelsea on Saturday night in the Premier League. In total, no less than 15 yellow cards were distributed by Anthony Taylor, including nine for Chelsea if we take into account his coach Enzo Maresca. Quite amusing since the Blues made “only” nine fouls in this match, for nine fouls committed.
Evanilson rates his penalty
Even Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez was booked for a very bad tackle on Evanilson (37th). But the Spanish goalkeeper made up for it by stopping the penalty taken by the Brazilian who tried to take justice into his own hands, without success.
Coming into play in place of Nicolas Jackson, who was also booked during this match, Christopher Nkunku was wiser than his teammates. Smarter too, to perfectly slip a ball given by Jadon Sancho into the small left net of Mark Travers (86th). A liberating goal, which the Frenchman celebrated as usual, by blowing into a balloon in the colors of his club.
With this victory, Chelsea is in seventh place with seven points. For its part, Bournemouth is stagnating in the soft underbelly with its five points.
