Events

Match Events

  • 0' Chelsea FC have kicked off against Leicester City FC. Both sides are eager to make an early statement.
  • 5' 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 Ruben Loftus-Cheek suffering a number of foals already.
  • 10' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 15' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Thomas Tuchel will be considering his options from the bench.

  • 22' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Conor Gallagher.
  • 27' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 28' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Red card for Conor Gallagher.

  • 47' Raheem Sterling is having a superb {COMPETITION} campaign — that is 0 goals this season for the right winger.
  • 52' It looks like no one’s ball. Chelsea FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 55' Leicester City FC ring the changes. Dennis Praet has done his job and it is now time for Ayoze Perez to step up.
  • 60' Over 60 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 63' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Raheem Sterling makes it 2-0.

  • 71' Italy international Jorginho has been a key figure this campaign — 3 goals and 3 assists in the Array this season.
  • 75' Another change for Chelsea FC made on 75 minute. Jorginho leaves to be changed by Mateo Kovacic.
  • 80' Chelsea FC have won 662 goals from 411 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 85' Both keepers have barely been tested. Chelsea FC and Leicester City FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
