Events

Match Events

  • 0' Three points are at stake. Chelsea FC host Fulham FC — let the battle begin!
  • 4' A goal from the Spain international Pedro! He fires home on 4 to make it 1-0!
  • 9' Ryan Sessegnon has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 5 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 14' Fulham FC is showing some good football. However, Fulham FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 19' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 24' Chelsea FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 29' Spain international Azpilicueta has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 34' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 39' The 35-year-old Marcos Alonso has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 44' Over 44 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 46' The crowd applauds Stefan Johansen as he leaves the pitch. Floyd Ayite steps in for Fulham FC.
  • 51' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 54' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Denis Odoi.
  • 55' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Denis Odoi.
  • 60' It looks like no one’s ball. Fulham FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 65' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Denis Odoi made 343 appearances and scored 7 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 67' Chelsea FC make a change. Mateo Kovacic trudges off to be replaced by Ruben Loftus-Cheek on 67 minutes.
  • 69' Azpilicueta was booked on 69.
  • 70' Chelsea FC ring the changes. Olivier Giroud has done his job and it is now time for Alvaro Morata to step up.
  • 75' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Chelsea FC that had 411 games and scored 662 goals.
  • 76' The Fulham FC bench stirs into life. Tom Cairney is withdrawn and Neeskens Kebano gets his opportunity.
  • 78' Davide Zappacosta is ready to make an impact after coming on for Marcos Alonso at the 78 minute mark.
  • 82' Ruben Loftus-Cheek adds to his 0 season tally! Chelsea FC lead 2-0 — and this changes everything.
  • 83' A moment of madness from Alvaro Morata on 83 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Chelsea FC will be frustrated.
  • 88' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 2-0 draw is a fair result on the day.
