Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Chelsea FC kicks off things out of here…
- 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 Clement Grenier suffering a number of foals already.
- 9' It’s a booking for Stade Rennais FC 1901 player. Dalbert Henrique gets a Yellow card.
- 10' Stade Rennais FC 1901 receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 10.
- 10' What a strike from Timo Werner! The score is 1-0.
- 12' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Dalbert Henrique.
- 17' Stade Rennais FC 1901 is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 22' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 22 minutes.
- 26' Kurt Zouma is having his name booked by the referee on 26.
- 31' It looks like no one’s ball. Stade Rennais FC 1901 is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 32' Hakim Ziyech is having his name booked by the referee on 32.
- 37' The travelling Stade Rennais FC 1901 supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 40' The referee calls foul for Dalbert Henrique. He receives a Red card.
- 41' What a strike from Timo Werner! The score is 2-0.
- 46' Adrien Truffert is replacing James Lea Siliki for the Stade Rennais FC 1901 side.
- 50' Goal! Tammy Abraham scores his 93 goal in 355 matches.
- 55' Yann Gboho needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 60' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. N'Golo Kante made 409 appearances and scored 10 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 62' Clement Grenier has so much to prove this time. He replaces Steven N'Zonzi on 62 minute.
- 63' The whistle greets Tammy Abraham as he departs to be replaced by Olivier Giroud.
- 65' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Jorginho.
- 68' The supporters are chanting for Antonio Rudiger. He replaces Thiago Silva on 68 minute.
- 73' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 75' The Chelsea FC manager makes a substitution. Hakim Ziyech departs to be replaced by Callum Hudson-Odoi.
- 76' Adrien Hunou has so much to prove this time. He replaces Sehrou Guirassy on 76 minute.
- 79' The referee calls foul for Mateo Kovacic. He receives a Yellow card.
- 84' Supporters expect more eagerness from Hakim Ziyech, as he is very good at scoring at Stamford Bridge with 3 goals in the last 3 games.
- 89' The referee calls foul for Romain Del Castillo. He receives a Yellow card.
- With this win, Chelsea FC is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
