Wards Antonio Conte obtained their first victory in 2018 (4: 0).
Brighton and Chelsea have opened the program for the twenty-fourth round of the Premier League. "Seagulls" came on the game with a scheme of three defenders, and Antonio Conte still decided to trust Misha Batshuyi. "Pensioners" immediately took up the matter and after the sixth minute led to two goals. At first, Eden Azar received the ball in the penalty area after a small rebound, moved to the right and opened an account. And in a few minutes I received congratulations from Willian. The Brazilian became the tip of a magnificent combination of wards Antonio Conte.
After such a failed start, Brighton found it difficult to count on something, but the hosts tried to score. Helped them in this is not the most confident game Caballero at the outputs, but when it was necessary, the Argentine rescued. Caballero parried Hemed's blow after Gross's pass. There was a time when Jonathan Moss could have set a penalty kick at Chelsea, but the referee did not notice a foul on Skelotto.
Guests had several more moments in the first half, but Ryan was on top, so the rest of the team left when the score was 0: 2. In the starting minutes of the second half of the game could be noted Prepper, but the ball after hitting the midfielder shook the frame of the gate. And at the end of the hour of the game there was an unpleasant moment when the heads faced Duffy and Christensen. The Dane soon needed a replacement.
Willian punched with a free kick, but Ryan stretched himself into the string and saved the team, but after fifteen minutes the Brazilian was noted as a result of action. Willian found an excellent transfer Azar, Eden moved to the center and sent the ball into the corner of the gate. Very nice and simple. A little playing time, and Charlie Mussond - the Belgian, by the way, correctly ordered. At the 89th minute of the Musson, Moses found an excellent transmission, and he in the melee beat Ryan. As a result, Chelsea defeated Brighton without spending much energy.
"Seagulls" also showed a decent game, but the result is clearly not pleased.
