The perfect start of Chelsea is over

After five consecutive wins, the perfect start of the Chelsea season in the Premier League is over. This happened in the London derby with West Ham, which ended 0:0 at London Steady. The blues had an edge throughout the game, but they did not create as many positions as the cleanest ones were missed by Alvaro Morata.

So Maurizio Sarri`s team lost first points and is the second in the rankings, two of Liverpool leaders. The two teams face each other the next Saturday of Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea quickly took control of the London Stadium meeting. Maurizio Sarri`s team started organizing an attack after an attack in search of the first goal. Eden Hazard and Willian constantly created problems with the opponent`s defense. Both of them were at the heart of the best attack at the beginning of the game. The Brazilian elegantly deflected the ball to Hazard, but his shot did not hinder Fabian.

The Hammers were quite difficult to reach the `blue` door, and Arnautovic`s lack was felt because there was no one to keep the ball in the front. In the 23rd minute.

Jorginho found Giroud in a great way, but the Frenchman`s attempt to shoot volley ended with the fact that he did not hit the ball.

Pellegrini`s team, like nothing, could lead after half an hour of play. After another Felipe Anderson`s break, he found Antonio, who fired at the door. Again, the striker had an excellent opportunity later. The former Nottingham player, however, sent the ball straight to Kepa from a close distance.

Chelsea rarely threatened Fabian`s door, but at the end of the first half, Vician`s excellent centering was not detected by Kante`s head. Sarri`s team was not aggressive enough at the start of the second part, but in an hour`s play he was close to the goal. Olivier Giroud did not reach the center of his compatriot Kante, and seconds later he left the field. Alvaro Morata, who was in his place, was immediately reported with two serious misses. These were the best positions for the guests at the start of the game.

The Blues tried to push, but in the 78th minute they could easily lose in the result from contact soccer predictions as Yarmolenko made an incredible pass. The Ukrainian received a magnificent shot from SNDgrass and was completely uncovered, but his shot with his head went away from the door.

Chelsea responded with a low strike to Kante, who was not far from the target. In the last few minutes, Sarri`s team has exerted a slashing pressure. A wonderful distant blow from Ross Barkley was saved brilliantly by Fabian. In the added time, Willian was brought into the small penalty area, but he fired hard and inaccurately.
