The Londoners sent several balls to the enemy's gate.
Chelsea hosted Preston in the 1/32 final of the English Cup. Mauricio Pochettino released Mykhailo Mudryk from the First Hwylin. The London team started the match with great enthusiasm, controlled the ball and tried to create a chance to score. However, it was not possible to find a clearing in the enemy’s defense.
This year, the guests gave the game away from their goals, but Chelsea decided to create a chance for a goal, when Gilchrist crossed Sterling well in the center, and Rahim shot in one dot - the ball hit the goalkeeper and flew into the goalkeeper's hand and behind the high trajectory. At some point in time, Londoners were faced with a long period of bombardment. In one of these moments, Enzo made a smart pass to Palmer, who crushed the ball from someone else’s free kick and tried to throw it over the goalkeeper, but it was discarded.
At the end of the first half, Mudryk tried to create a strike from the left flank, but his individual actions did not bring any delay. At the break, the teams were tied 0:0, and in the 58th quarter, Chelsea ended up with a 0-0 draw.. Mudryk passed to Gusteau, and he made a high pass - Broya won the fight on the “other side” and hit his header right in the corner. 1:0.
Even through the hvilina, Mudrik hung from the left flank, and broke through Broya with his head. How many times has the ball closed the crossbar. Immediately after this, the Ukrainian left the field, sacrificing the place of Madueke. Preston managed to escape psychologically through a goal and then physically, which led to a number of other moments that ended in goals. Right away, Tiago Silva ran to the near post and headed the ball under the crossbar after serving from the corner. 2:0.
The guests didn’t manage to come to you, as Sterling put a damper on Preston’s chances to go further - Rakhim brilliantly took a free kick and made it 3:0.
Not being surprised by the current advantage in the penalty area, Chelsea continued to attack, which allowed them to please their fans - Enzo Fernandez, having recovered the ball in someone else's penalty area for a few meters, he scored and punched into an empty corner. It was initially called offside, but then the referees ruled the goal. The referee's final whistle confirmed Chelsea's 4:0 win.
