Summary of Chelsea's victory 0:1 over Everton (Sport1)
An interesting summer passed for Chelsea, who changed owners and also got stronger with some intriguing players.
Tonight (Saturday), Thomas Tuchel's team opened their Premier League season with a not very impressive 0:1 in Liverpool against Everton coached by former Chelsea icon Frank Lampard.
Raheem Sterling and Kalidou Koulibaly, the two main reinforcements for Chelsea this season, started in Tuchel's lineup and showed good ability.
But that game was decided by a mistake by Docura, who unnecessarily pushed Ben Chilwell in the box and Jorginho decided from the penalty spot deep in the long added time of the first half.
Everton, greatly weakened by Risherlison's departure to Tottenham, caused a lot of trouble for the Blues in the previous home games against them in recent years, but the team's lack of punch was already evident in the first game and it seems that Lampard and the players will struggle at the bottom of the season without reinforcements.
And Chelsea?
She didn't look bad, but there is an impression that she still needs another striker to add punch, probably in light of the fact that her leading striker also left her in the summer (Lukako).
In the next cycle, they will face a much more serious test when they host the powerful Tottenham for a hot and intriguing London derby.
Everton:
Jordan Pickford, Nathan Patterson, James Tarkowski, Jerry Mina, Benjamin Godfrey, Vitaly Mikulenko, Demarai Gray, Abdoulaye Dokora, Alexander Iwobi, Dwight McNeil, Anthony Gordon.
Chelsea:
Edouard Mendy, Rhys James, Cesar Azpilicueta, Thiago Silva, Kalidou Koulibaly, Ben Chilwell, Angolo Kante, Jorginho, Mason Mount,
