Premier: Chelsea plays better but the derby goes to West Ham – Football

The London derby that today played at home at the London Stadium against Chelsea goes to West Ham.


In addition to the first game of the season, the Blues also lost Carney Chukwuemeka, who in twenty minutes went from the joy of his first career goal to the sporting drama of a left knee injury that risks keeping him out for a long time. Just like Christopher Nkunku, whose place he took after the injury of the former Leipzig and Paris SG.


The insult for Chelsea was also that they lost 3-1 despite playing better than their rivals on aggregate and with the extra man in the last half hour, given that Nayef Aguerd, author of the Hammers’ first goal, had been sent off for double admonition. Coach Pochettino also complained about the penalty missed by Enzo Fernandez.


As for West Ham, Antonio and Paqueta also scored (from a penalty), the latter not conditioned on the pitch by the fact that he was under investigation for a betting affair.


Very good Ward-Prowse, just arrived from Southampton.
