Summary: Brighton - Chelsea 1: 1 (Sport 1)
Chelsea recorded yesterday (Tuesday) a fourth consecutive league game without a win after a 1-1 draw against Brighton, in a game in which they showed very weak ability. The European champion has recently suffered not only from weak ability but also from internal tension, which was expressed in quotes by Romulo Lukaku and Thomas Tuchel's public criticism of the Belgian striker, and yesterday it was Hakim Zeish who scored and did not celebrate.
Zeish's behavior drew reactions, and not just from Chelsea fans, who wondered why the Moroccan remained indifferent after the beautiful goal.
Jules Cole, now a commentator and former Chelsea player, was disappointed by Zeish's reaction and said: "That's why you play, to score. It's true he's a talented player, and he rarely plays, the English league is very different from the Dutch, but not to celebrate? "Well, if he was with me in the group, I would wake him up."
Commentator Glenn Murray said: "I was disappointed he did not celebrate. When you celebrate with the fans, it gives your team an energy boost, 10 minutes of push, in which Chelsea could have finished the game. She needed it. It's some kind of message he conveyed to his friends "And it made an impact."
Cole added: "When you celebrate a goal and run for the fans, you say you worked hard all week, stood on the game plan and bang, you won. Now he thinks maybe he conveyed a message to his coach, but the message should be just the goal itself, not the celebration. He should enjoy."

Chelsea coach Thomas Tuchel commented on his team's weak ability and said: "We looked tired and we were really tired. We knew Brighton would be very ready, she had time to prepare and you could see at the end what celebrations were here in the stadium as if they had won. That's what you face. We tried everything, but you could see we're mentally and physically tired. We need a few days off. The players need days off, there is no other solution. I have not seen many teams dominate against Brighton for 90 minutes. It plays brave football and sends a lot of players wide to create situations. "Of course if we had taken advantage of half-situations and gone up to 0: 2 then it would have been a different game. At the moment it is difficult for me to be too rigid with the players because I know what is happening."
On the fact that Zeish did not celebrate after his goal, Tuchel said: "I am happy. He can score another 20 goals and not celebrate, I have no problem. It is clear that the players will talk and not like that we say we expect more from them. "It was a feeling of relief than joy. That's how I feel about the team right now."
