A thrilling London derby under the lights at Stamford Bridge
Chelsea fought back from two goals down to beat West Ham in a thrilling London derby on Saturday. Liam Rosenior’s decision to make SEVEN changes to the Chelsea side that started the Champions League win over Napoli in midweek backfired in spectacular fashion, particularly in the first-half.
However, Rosenior equally was justified for ringing the changes at half-time as the Blues superblu battled back to earn a win that moves them above Manchester United in the Premier League table. As for the Hammers, their mini unbeaten run in the league comes to an end and they remain five points from safety.
Goals from Jarrod Bowen and Crysencio Summerville had the visitors two up at the break and the Chelsea players were met with boos from supporters. Joao Pedro, Marc Cucurella were introduced for the second half, each scored to get the hosts on level terms before Enzo Fernandez netted the winning goal in stoppage time, while Jean-Clair Todibo was sent-off.
