4-1: Chelsea dismantle Newcastle

One Love and I can not. That’s him Chelsea for too long now and that is the version that he demonstrated to get rid of before a Newcastle which is quite the opposite, a brilliant project with the desire to become big (4-1).

The box came Mauricio Pochettino of weeks of improvements that were reflected in the last day, where they managed to draw against Manchester City in a great game. This is how they faced the first minutes at St. Jame’s Park, in a vertical and relentless duel, with a frenetic pace, as the matches of the team of Eddie Howe.

Equality was evident. The defenses were hanging by a thread and it would be the first mistake that could break the balance of the scoreboard, while both played in pure Premier style. That or a genius, because the young Miley, who is impressing with her youth, broke the ‘blue’ defense to find Isakwho scored the first (13′).

The Chelsea after that. She didn’t give him time either. Sterlingwho has been in great form lately, scratched a foul on Trippier on a counterattack and with a wonderful dry shot forced the tie under the gaze of a helpless Pope (23′).

That’s how the first half was. A constant give and take. With clear chances, saves by Rober Sánchez, errors by Joelinton, stretches by the goalkeeper of the Newcastle of much merit and a stringer from Trippier. An attractive and vibrant match, also evenly matched and yes, resolved for what it should have been, a major mistake. Or rather two.

After breaking the tie Lascelles With a header (60′), Pochettino’s men fell into the void. In a matter of seconds, Thiago Silva’s nerves got crossed and he gave the ball to Joelinton so that he could escape on the scoreboard Newcastle (61′) and shortly after the Chelsea He was left with ten after the second yellow for Reece James.

The ‘blue’ set ended up being scrapped. He remembered the one at the beginning of the season. A picture full of doubts and helplessness that, as it could not be otherwise, ended up conceding a fourth goal, the work of Gordon (83′), in another defeat worth reflecting on.
