Chelsea faced Crystal Palace in a thrilling match that ended in a 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge. Ebere Eze’s fantastic goal denied Chelsea the victory they were looking for. Let’s take a look at how each Chelsea player performed in this game.

Starting with Robert Sanchez, who had a decent game with a rating of 6. He looked comfortable with the ball at his feet and made a couple of saves, although he couldn’t do much to stop Eze’s brilliant goal.

Malo Gusto, who scored a 6, supported attacks down the right but struggled with an injury and had to be substituted in the 73rd minute. Wesley Fofana, also rated 6, provided cover in defence and played a crucial ball that led to a big chance for Noni Madueke.

Levi Colwill had a rating of 6 and was unlucky not to score with a header that was saved. Moises Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez, both rated 7, did well in midfield, with Caicedo doing the dirty work and Fernandez looking to combine with the forwards.

Noni Madueke, with a rating of 7, had a great opportunity to score twice in the first half but was denied on both occasions. Cole Palmer, rated 8, provided the assist for Chelsea’s goal and orchestrated the game from deeper positions.

Pedro Neto, who scored a 6, made a bright start but faded as the game progressed. Nicolas Jackson, with a rating of 7, scored Chelsea’s goal but missed a couple of chances later in the game. Joao Felix, Mykhailo Mudryk, and Christopher Nkunku all scored a 6, with Felix struggling to make an impact off the bench.

Overall, Chelsea had a mixed performance with some standout players like Cole Palmer and Noni Madueke, but they will be disappointed not to secure the win against Crystal Palace. The team will need to regroup and work on their finishing to convert their chances into goals in future matches.
