Cole Palmer’s two stoppage-time strikes gave Chelsea an unlikely win.
Mauricio Pochettino also believes it could be a ‘turning point’ in Chelsea’s relationship with their fans after beating Manchester United
But there was more drama to come. With almost the game’s final kick, Palmer blasted at goal and, via a deflection from Scott McTominay, scored to bury Erik ten Hag’s side and spark joyous scenes amongst home supporters. “We started really well, 2-0 , the game was under control, then we made a mistake and suffered an emotional impact. It wasn’t easy to deal with. In the second half we controlled the game conceded in transitions.
The game was level minutes later as Bruno Fernandes stealed away at the far post to nod Dalot’s cross beyond Djordje Petrovic.Then came Palmer’s crazy intervention at the death, as Chelsea breathed life into their bid to qualify for Europe. “We were in a winning poison with very good football and scoring great goals. Then in stoppage time, we didn’t bring the win over the line.
