In the early morning of January 21 (Vietnam time), Chelsea hosted Wolves in the latest match of round 22 of the Premier League.
With home advantage, Chelsea overwhelmed their opponents from the first minutes. In the 22nd minute, Reece James' missed shot allowed Tosin Adarabioyo to easily score a rebound to open the scoring. Initially, the goal was canceled due to an offside error, but thanks to VAR's intervention, the referee recognized the advantage for The Blues.
In the first half's extra time, from a corner kick by Matheus Cunha, goalkeeper Sanchez pushed the ball to Mr. Doherty's position. The defender rushed in and shot into Chelsea's net to equalize.
At the start of the second half, the Blues regained the advantage with Cucurella's close-range shot, marking his 100th Premier League appearance.
Five minutes later, Madueke headed the ball from close range after Palmer's corner kick. At the end of the match, Nicolas Jackson put the ball into Wolves' net but it was disallowed due to an offside error.
In the end, Enzo Maresca and his team won with a score of 3-1. This result ended their 5-match winless streak in the Premier League, a timely motivation for them to be more confident ahead of their trip to the Etihad Stadium to face Man City next week.
