- FT: Chelsea 3-2 Leeds United
Raphinha offside
12. He tries to get down Chelsea’s left but the flag goes up. Pressing in full flow but there’s so much space for Chelsea once they beat the first wave.
Chelsea shoot
14. Forshaw clears, but it’s straight to Loftus-Cheek. He drives forward and unleashes a shot from distance but it flies well wide.
Leeds corner
15. Leeds come forward. James does well, gets it out of his feet on the edge of the box. It’s to Harrison and his low shot it blocked behind.
Leeds attack, corner
16. Dallas’ corner is headed out, Raphinha gathers and shoots. It’s deflected and hooked behind. Chelsea then clear the next one at the near post.
Chelsea pressure
18. No real chances but the hosts are pushing Leeds back. Llorente has to head away a Werner ball into the area.
Leeds free-kick
19. Raphinha slides Tyler into the Chelsea half. He travels and Jorginho trips him on the edge of the box, it’s about left with the right line of the area.
LEEDS CHANCE
20. Raphinha with an stunning effort at goal. It’s a wonderful save from Mendy from the free-kick, who sprints to his left to palm it over the bar. So close!
Leeds pressure
21. Roberts wins another free-kick, further out and closer to the touchline this one. The home crowd whine at that one. Raphinha steps up again...
Mendy gathers
22. Raphinha’s free-kick is overhit this time and Mendy gathers the cross without any pressure. Chelsea can come away.
