After a heated final phase, Chelsea secured a well-deserved 2-1 win over Leicester City and now have the Champions League qualification in their own hands. In the first half, the Tuchel team operated chances usury, and two Werner goals were rightly withdrawn. The German national players of the Blues were decisive in the important three-point after the break. Shortly after the break, Antonio Rüdiger hit from a corner, then Werner took the penalty to make it 2-0. After the goal, it became unnecessarily exciting again. 95th Minute: Leicester's bank player Amartey sees the yellow card, he probably protested too hard. Go on. 93rd Minute: The emotions are boiling! Pack formation between the two teams, the minds no longer want to calm down. Ndidi and James must have gotten into each other's hair and have to be kept apart by their teammates. The return of the fans probably doesn't play an insignificant role. 90th minute: Giant thing to compensate! Substitute Ricardo Pereira prevails on the right side and plays the ball into the backcourt. Ayoze Perez takes the ball directly and just misses the box. 88th Minute: Azpilicueta is kicked over by Söyüncü. Tuchel changes the captain as a precaution and brings defender Zouma for the last few minutes. 81st Minute: Iheanacho tries from over 25 meters. But the goalscorer lacks the strength at the end, no problem for Mendy.
