The teams started the match slowly, sometimes even lazily. The slowness seemed logical, because no one canceled the competent economy of forces in the middle of the week. Chelsea were in possession of the ball, attacking positionally and unsuccessfully searching for free zones, while Wolverhampton failed in their counterattacks. The first dangerous moment of the duel had to wait 20 minutes.
Indeed, if Werner and Havertz’s blocked punches definitely cannot be counted in a series of threats, Giroud set the example for the Germans and woke up everyone around him: his headshot after serving from the ball. flank lacked precision. Answered by Wolves No, but Mendy did his job correctly. Towards the end of the first half, Zuma blew his chance: Kurt took off the keepers in the corner and nodded on the crossbar.
There is no way to pass for either side in the first half and we entered the break scoreless. #WOLCHE

Almost immediately after break Fat kicked Chilwell’s cross (this is Olivier’s eighth goal of the season for the Blues), powerfully breaking into Patrick (0: 1) – The Portuguese goalkeeper was about to face the Frenchman’s shot, but still allowed the sphere to roll over the goal line. However, the “Wolves” rushed to respond: first, Fabio Silva tied the score, but from offside, but Stand up already acted within the framework of the rules, running over the guest defenders and bouncing off James, unexpectedly for Mendy, bursting into the nearby corner (eleven).
82 – Each of Wolves’ last 82 Premier League goals have been scored by non-British players (excluding goals themselves); only Arsenal have had a longer streak in the competition (171 between October 2005 and February 2008). Package. #WOLCHE pic.twitter.com/0zioYd5BNz

The conceded goal broke Chelsea’s already imaginary control – the Blues lost confidence and often brought in game situations to shoot at their possessions. The Wolves made several dangerous counterattacks, and 10 minutes before the final whistle, only the VAR could help Atwell determine that James did not touch Neto in Mendy’s penalty area. However, Peter I still found the opportunity to upset Lampard’s team at the end of the match: a counterattack, a run to goal and a billiard shot in the far pocket. (twenty-one)… But now is the time for Frank and his coaching staff to think about it: two losses in a row do not inspire the optimism above.
