Chelsea continued their winless march as they failed to win again.
Chelsea drew 1-1 in the 2022/23 Premier League round 23 match against West Ham United held at the London Stadium in London, England on the 11th (Korean time).
Until the match against West Ham, Chelsea failed to turn the atmosphere around as they drew all their recent games.
The away team Chelsea set up a 4-3-2-1 formation. Kepa Arrizabalaga donned the goalkeeper’s gloves, while Marc Cucurella, Benoit Badiacil, Thiago Silva and Rhys James formed the defence.
The third line was played by Noni Madueke, Enso Fernandez and Ruben Loftus-Cheek, and the second line was assigned to Mihailo Mudriq and Joao Felix. In the front line, Kai Havertz aimed for the West Ham goal with a one-top.
The home team, West Ham, faced off with a 3-4-2-1. Ukasi Fabianski was in goal, with Nayef Aggerd, Angelo Ogbonna and Thilo Kehrer forming the back three. Emerson Palmieri and Vladimir Choupal were placed on the left and right wingbacks.
Declan Rice and Lucas Paqueta kept the third line, and Jared Bowen and Said Benrama played in the second line. In the one-top position in the front line, Mikhail Antonio was named.
Chelsea seemed to have scored his debut goal in the 8th minute of the first half, but the first Premier League goal was passed to the next opportunity as an offside decision was made.
Felix, who missed the first goal even during the off-season, did not miss his second. In the 15th minute of the first half, Felix received an accurate pass from Enso inside the penalty box and shook West Ham’s net to score his Chelsea debut goal.
In the 21st minute of the first half, Havertz seemed to score an additional goal, but it was disappointing as another offside decision was made.
In the 27th minute of the first half, West Ham balanced the game. Chelsea full-back Emerson managed to break into the empty space and equalize against his former team.
In the 40th minute of the first half, Chelsea got a free kick opportunity in a good position. Felix, the protagonist of the opening goal, tried to score a multi-goal with a sharp kick, but goalkeeper Fabianski threw his body and blocked it.
The first half ended 1-1 with both teams trading goals apiece.
In the 11th minute of the second half, a free kick from Chelsea fullback James hit the head of a West Ham defender and seemed to lead to a lucky goal, but narrowly missed the goal.
In the 29th minute of the second half, Havertz tried to score with a header, but was unable to make an effective shot due to interference from the West Ham defense. 토토사이트
In the 36th minute of the second half, substitute West Ham midfielder Thomas Soucek seemed to score a come-from-behind goal, but Chelsea breathed a sigh of relief as he was caught offside.
In the 43rd minute of the second half, Chelsea midfielder Connor Gallagher’s shot hit Soucheck, and Chelsea players requested a penalty kick to the referee, but it was not accepted.
Five minutes of extra time were given in the second half, but the game ended in a 1-1 draw, and neither team could determine a winner.
Felix performed well that day and even scored a goal on his Chelsea debut, but the light faded as the team failed to win.
