Events
Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds Turf Moor will turn into a battlefield for Burnley FC and Chelsea FC.
- 5' Burnley FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 10' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Jorginho suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' Supporters expect more eagerness from Hakim Ziyech, as he is very good at scoring at Turf Moor with 1 goals in the last 1 games.
- 20' Chelsea FC have won 662 goals from 411 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 25' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 26' A goal from the Morocco international Hakim Ziyech! He fires home on 26 to make it 0-1!
- 31' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 36' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Burnley FC and Chelsea FC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
- 41' Chelsea FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 41.
- 46' Jay Rodriguez has so much to prove this time. He replaces Dale Stephens on 46 minute.
- 49' That is a Yellow card for Burnley FC. Kevin Long will be fuming at that decision.
- 54' Germany international Timo Werner has been a key figure this campaign — 6 goals and 2 assists in the Array this season.
- 59' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 63' What composure from Kurt Zouma! The France international strokes it home. 0-2.
- 68' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. James Tarkowski made 346 appearances and scored 15 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 70' Timo Werner doubles the advantage! 0-3 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 73' Chelsea FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Callum Hudson-Odoi is hanging Hakim Ziyech on the field on 73 minute.
- 77' Another substitution for Chelsea FC to replace Tammy Abraham by Olivier Giroud on 77 minute.
- 82' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 82 minutes.
- 86' Time for substitution for Chelsea FC. Kai Havertz is replaced by Jorginho.
- 0-3 the final result. Burnley FC will be bitterly disappointed.
