Chelsea fluttered against Stoke
Chelsea achieved a seventh consecutive home win in the Premier League after winning 5-0 against Stoke. Antonio Conte`s team also missed a goal in the fourth consecutive league match. So temporarily the `blue` climbed to second place in the standings, ahead of Manchester United, who played later today.
The Londoners secured the three points to the middle of the first half when they were already leading 3:0. Rundegger, Drinkwater and Pedro scored in the first quarter of the match. Villian scored a penalty in the 73rd minute, and Dazpakosta made the final result by
proofed soccer tips shortly before the final referee. Antonio Conte gave a break to Eden Hazard who stayed on the bench with Bakayoko and Fabregas. In their place were Drinkwater, Pedro and Villian, and the three of them were among the top scorers. Chelsea started at a very high pace and after nine minutes led by 2:0. The trouble at the center of the visitors` defense was obvious at the very beginning. In the third minute, Vician`s centering foul found Rundegger, who between three defenders jumped the highest and headed the ball to the net. The Londoners` superiority also led to a second goal after Danny Drinkworth scored his first goal for Chelsea at the ninth minute and made it impressive. He took the ball out of the penalty area and fired from the air, and the shot was magnificent and left no chance for Butland.
The attacks of the `blue` continued, as Morata shot twice. Stoke`s defense, which was without the injured Shawkros and Zuma, who had no right to play, had serious problems. Conte`s team led 3-0 in the middle of the first half. This time the top scorer was Pedro, who received the ball from Villian and with a precise hit sent it to the bottom right corner of Butland. After the break Chelsea lowered the pace but continued to control the game. In the 50th minute, Stoke reached a rare opportunity to scratch, but Sadio Berahino missed. The striker is in goal land and has not scored since February 2016. After an hour of play, Morata has a serious omission.
Conte made all three of his shifts, which refreshed his team`s game. Villian made a 4:0 win from a penalty he won. A mistake in the guests` defense allowed Daspakosta to be written off. Josh Timeon tried to clear his head, but sent the ball to the Italian`s foot and he directed it to the low-kicked net.
