Last week after the match between Chelsea and Tottenham at Stamford Bridge, all the fans, media and commentators were mainly concerned with the heated confrontation between Thomas Tuchel and Antonio Conte at the end, even though the match delivered the goods with a great 2:2.
Today (Sunday) a week later, nothing will hide the defensive ability of Chelsea who were humiliated 3:0 against Leeds away.
The Blues, who opened the season with a win and as mentioned later in a draw against the Spurs, record their first loss already in the 3rd round and it is not an easy loss at all.
For their first goal, Leeds should say a big thank you to the Chelsea goalkeeper - Edward Mendy.
In the 33rd minute Thiago Silva passed the ball backwards to the Senegalese goalkeeper who lingered in the penalty area and lost the ball to Brendan Aronson who rolled the guest's goal into the net.
Four minutes later, Leeds went up 0:2.
Jack Harrison collected a free kick, Rodrigo hit the net and made an incredible 0:2 for the host.
In the 69th minute came the icing.
Daniel James raised the ball to the area, Rodrigo took it down with a touch and Jack Harrison scored from close range to make it 0:3.
In the 84th minute, Kalidou Koulibaly, who scored against the Spurs last week, was sent off at Chelsea and further dug Tuchel's sad pit, who at the end was again very nervous and quarreled with the refereeing team.

Alexis Alistair Fendel (22) and Andrew Trossar (66) scored for the Seagulls who, like Leeds, start the season with 7 out of 9 points.
