As part of the 21st day of the Premier League, Chelsea welcomed Fulham to Stamford Bridge. 10th in the English championship at kick-off, the Blues quickly dominated in this meeting but could not find the fault against the Cottagers. We finally had to wait until added time in the first act to see Cole Palmer break the deadlock. After a foul on Raheem Sterling in the opposing area, the young 21-year-old English midfielder transformed the penalty and threw his team perfectly (1-0, 45+3rd).
Returning from the locker room, Chelsea hit the opposing posts twice (53rd, 83rd) but were also scared. Fortunately for Mauricio Pochettino’s men, Djordje Petrovic reassured his team (73rd, 74th) and preserved the Blues’ narrow victory. With this result (1-0), Chelsea moved back to 8th place. For its part, Fulham remains stuck in 13th place.
