‘First’ with Chelsea tainted by expulsion foul

Joao Felix’s new adventure with the Chelsea jersey could not have started worse. Arriving on loan from Atletico Madrid, the Portuguese star ended his first game with the Blues in the worst possible way.

After a good first half, Joao Felix made a foolish entrance on Tete in the 58th minute of the game that forced the referee to draw a red card. In addition to the damage, there was also the mockery as Chelsea eventually lost the game as well (2-1 the final for Fulham). Also of note was the injury to former Juventus man Zakaria, who was beginning to become an important element in Potter’s midfield.
