Chelsea look to pick up some momentum. Same attacking three start up top. Game kicks off at 10 AM EDT.
Would be nice to see him score his first goal today. A newly promoted side at home should be a good recipe for it.
Pretty excited about this one, although I missed Green's game today 'cause he played at some ungodly hour.
Cp’s First bit of real play, settles a long ball, cuts inside, good ball to overlapping Azpilicueta for a dangerous cross. No shot off of it.
I know people will talk about Kante being out, but they need Loftus Cheek back in midfield. From watching the Chelsea games they lack creativity
Not sure that will go down as an assist; but he was heavily involved and created that build up, good stuff from him
Hard to tells even playing. I don't think so. But Pulisic was heavily involved in the goal so it's essentially worth an assist.
Abraham goal! CP involved. Back heel from Barkley to CP at midfield, who dribbles 30 yards, plays it wide to Azpilicueta, though this may have been a pass intended for Barkley by CP, cross in headed by Abraham down on goal, CP gets a stretch touch to it a few inches from the keeper to force a rebound, which Abraham makes no mistake on through traffic. No great plays by him, but heavy involvement.
But Pulisic got a touch on that at great difficulty, which caused the rebound instead of a clean save. His effort there helped.
