External hit for the Chelsea who today won 1-0 at home against Bournemouth. A difficult challenge in which Maresca’s team risked finding themselves behind (penalty missed by the home team in the 38th minute with Evanilson). The decisive goal came four minutes from the end: Nkunku scored on an assist from Sancho. With this result, Chelsea rose to 7 points, 5 points behind leaders Manchester City.
