The Merseysiders have played another weak game since the start of the calendar year. They were totally outmatched by the Londoners, who were able to score at least a few more goals. The hosts did not even have an accurate shot until the 85th minute. This is a historic loss for Liverpool, as the team has so far not lost in five consecutive home games.

With this defeat, the former students of Jurgen Klopp remain in seventh place with an asset of 43 points, four in the Top 4, where the Chelsea team is located, which is no longer lost in 10 consecutive games after the appointment of Thomas Tuchel. In the next round, the Reds host Fulham, while the Blues host Everton.

The hosts started the game with more confidence and the first knock on one of the two gates was in the direction of Edward Mendy. Andrew Robertson sent him in in the seventh minute, but out the door.

In the 11th minute, Timo Werner controlled the ball well in front of the penalty area and shot instantly, but over Alison’s goal.

It was impressive that in the opening minutes Liverpool tried high pressure, and Giorgino Vainaldum and Curtis Jonus tried to find the empty spaces behind the Chelsea defense with long passes to Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane.

In the 16th minute, Giorgino tried to find Timo Werner in the penalty area, but Tiago couldn’t clear, but the German couldn’t control the ball, which was caught by Alison.

Seconds later, Reese James controlled the right in the penalty area and returned the ball to César Aspilicueta, who fired, but on the out.

In the 24th minute, Timo Werner got behind the Liverpool defense at high speed, overtaking Alison and sent the ball into the door. However, the VAR system intervened and the coup was called off due to a very fine ambush from the German.

In the following minutes, Liverpool accelerated again and had a great opportunity in the 28th minute, when Salah pulled Mane from behind the visiting defense, but the Senegalese failed to control the ball and shoot.

In the 37th minute, Chelsea put together a good attack, which ended with a shot from Mason Mount, which turned out to be rather imprecise.

Chelsea still took the lead in the 42nd minute after a great goal from Mason Mount. N’Golo Cante found the English national with a great diagonal pass to the left of the penalty area. Mount took the ball well, entered and Fabinho left a wide clearance for a shot, which the midfielder took advantage of and sent the ball to Alison’s lower left corner – 0: 1.

The Reds started the second half stronger, claiming a penalty in the 48th minute for playing with Kante’s hand in the penalty area, but no infraction was ruled.

Two minutes later, Fabinho headed the ball after a cross from a corner, but from Mandy’s right crossbar.

In the 54th minute, Chelsea came very close to a second goal. Ben Chillwell and Mount made a great double from the left in the penalty area, after which Chillwell fired into the near corner, but Alison saved. Hakim Ziesh added, but Andrew Robertson cleared the goal line.

Shortly after an hour of play on the field for the hosts Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Diogo Jota appeared, replacing Mohamed Salah and Curtis Jones.

In the following minutes, Liverpool had more control of the ball, but could not reach a shot on goal from Mandy. The hosts did not have an accurate shot so far in the game.

In minute 77, the “blues”, once again, carried the ball very calmly and with a few touches it reached Werner from the left in the penalty area, followed by a shot in the near corner, which was rejected by Alison .

Four minutes later, Andreas Christensen slipped on the edge of the box, but Roberto Firmino couldn’t control the ball well and Mandy quickly moved and caught.

Five minutes before the end of regulation time, Liverpool were close to equalizing. Firmino fought for the ball down the left and crossed, as Kabak could have shot, but he didn’t do it in the best way. Alexander-Arnold then focused and Vainaldum shot with his head, but in Mandy’s hands.

At the end of the match, the hosts never found their way to their opponent’s gate and suffered another defeat since the beginning of the year.
