Chelsea Free Fall: Latest News & Analysis

Chelsea lost their way and lost more points again in the fight for the Premier League. Now, they lost as a visitor 2-1 against Fulham, being the fifth game in a row that they have added three.

The first half had little football and a lot of roughness, to the point that he had five yellow cards, three of them from the blue team, who also suffered the expulsion of Marc Cucurella in the 22nd minute, which did not have as much weight in the initial stage, but did in the complementary stage.
