VIDEO | Mendy’s tremendous mistake against Leeds… worse than against Benzema in the Champions League!

Mendy was the negative protagonist of Chelsea’s painful defeat at Ellan Road (3-0). The French goalkeeper received a ball in the 33rd minute of the match, but he did not have the best control and tried to re-raise Aaaronson, without luck. The Leeds player stole his wallet and scored at will the goal that opened the scoring, a goal reminiscent of the one scored by Mendy himself against Benzema in the last edition of the Champions League.

Then, without even having assumed it, the header of Rodrigo Moreno, who finished off the 2-0 in a strategic play thrown from the left side by Jack Harrison. The fourth goal in three days for the Spanish international striker, the best scorer at this start of the competition that rekindles the flame of the national team, with which he has not played since November, when the Qatar 2022 World Cup is approaching. All in five minutes, from 32 to 37, between the anxiety and disbelief of Chelsea, bowed without intuiting it.

Before Leeds’ final blow, which sentenced the match with a goal from Jack Harrison, this time assisted, with the roles reversed from 2-0, by Rodrigo Moreno to show Thomas Tuchel that the defeat was not a simple matter of error of Mendy, but a combination of nonsense from which he was never able to recover in Ellan Road. They are only four points in three days, without a single goal from any of their forwards. And with Koulibaly, disappointing, expelled at the end. César Azpiilicueta played the last five minutes. Seven points adds Leeds, captained by Rodrigo, on the podium and undefeated.
