Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Fulham FC gets underway.

- 10' Chelsea FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 15' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.

- 30' Fulham FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 30.

- 43' Over 43 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 48' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Fulham FC that had 350 games and scored 458 goals.
- 49' Cole Palmer doubles the advantage! 1-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 49' Harry Wilson has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 49.

- 72' Fulham FC come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 75' Poor challenge from Axel Disasi. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 77' A change in the Chelsea FC ranks — Raheem Sterling exits the field as Ben Chilwell enters on 77.
- 79' A meaty challenge results in booking for Thiago Silva on 79.
- 80' Cole Palmer has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 80.
- 82' Sasa Lukic has so much to prove this time. He replaces Joao Palhinha on 82 minute.
- 87' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 90' Carney Chukwuemeka is replacing Cole Palmer for the Chelsea FC side.
- Fulham FC will have plenty to reflect on. Chelsea FC were simply the better side today.
