Estêvão suffers a penalty, and Chelsea equalizes. The Brazilian made an individual move on the right in the 12th minute, invaded the area and fell after being touched by Semenyo. The referee ordered the move to continue, but was called by VAR, reviewed the move and awarded the penalty. On the beat, Palmer hit Petrovic’s right corner, which hit the side, but didn’t catch it.
Chelsea turned it around with a great goal. Still in the first half, Enzo Fernández played with Garnacho, cleared the marking at the edge of the area and sent it into the left corner of Petrovic, who just looked.
Bournemouth equalized with another throw-in. This time on the left, Semenyo lifted the ball into the area at the end of the first half, there was a deflection at the first post, and it was left for Kluivert, alone, to push into the net at the second post.
Estêvão caused Jiménez’s wrath. In a move on the left of the attack in the final stage, the Brazilian jewel went after the Mexican and took him to the bottom. The field ended, he came out with the ball and everything and collapsed on the lawn. Jiménez approached and shouted in the Chelsea player’s ear, who turned around laughing and blew a kiss towards his rival.
Chelsea’s pressure didn’t pay off. The home team threw everything into the final stretch of the duel, cornered Bournemouth’s defense, but were unable to break through. On the other side, the visiting club only had one clear chance, but Unal sent it over.
