On Monday, January 20, Chelsea hosted Wolverhampton at home as part of the 22nd round of the Premier League.

The first 20 minutes of the match were entirely in the hands of the hosts, who carried out half a dozen attacks, forcing Jose Sa to sweat. And already in the 23rd minute, a corner helped Tosin Adarabillo open the scoring.

After the goal was scored, Chelsea slowed down the pace, but the Wolves still could not take possession of the ball and carry out their attacks, and only at the very end of the half, also thanks to a corner, the guests equalized the score after an error by Robert Sanchez. The ball dropped from the keeper's hands was driven into the goal by Matt Doherty.

In the second half, the teams acted much more carefully, but already in the 60th minute Chelsea took the lead after Cucurella’s goal, and immediately scored again - Madueke tried. The Wolves had only one serious chance to come back, but Robert Sanchez made amends for his mistake in the first half and saved the team.
