Leeds –
Chelsea indeed just a draw without a goal against Leeds United. But, the result is enough to continue the slick record of the Blues together Thomas Tuchel.
Visiting Elland Road, Saturday (13/3/20210) evening WIB, Chelsea played aggressively from the early minutes and controlled 62 percent of the ball possession.
They made 15 attempts, eight of which scored goals. Meanwhile, Leeds was only given seven attempts with four on goal. Leeds, which usually dominates the match, are only given a 38 percent chance of controlling the ball.
However, Chelsea struggled to score a goal due to their poor finishing. Until the match ended, no goals were scored and Chelsea only added one point.
His position in fourth place in the standings with 51 points from 29 matches has not been shaken, but the difference of three points with West Ham United in fifth could have been cut.
Despite failing to win, Chelsea were at least able to continue their good results under Tuchel, as they were unbeaten in their first 12 matches in all competitions. This equaled Felipe Scolari’s record several years ago.
Just two goals conceded in his first 10 Premier League games, ChelseaTuchel’s equaled Jose Mourinho’s record. Edouard Mendy, 19, has a staggering number of clean sheets, more than the 18 goals he has scored this season.
A total of 14 clean sheets were achieved by Mendy in the Premier League, only losing to 15 of Ederson’s clean sheets.
“We are more confident if we don’t concede. We are disappointed with this result and it is a good sign,” Tuchel was quoted as saying BBC Sport.
