Frank Lampard has suffered three straight defeats as interim boss at Chelsea CFC
It took a wonder goal for Brighton beat Chelsea – but that was not the story of the game.
The Seagulls were utterly dominant in their 2-1 victory at Stamford Bridge and it was like watching two teams in different leagues.While Roberto De Zerbi’s men played with speed, aggression and intelligence, Frank Lampard’s side had nothing. A fortuitous opener from Conor Gallagher, exceptional goalkeeping from Kepa Arrizabalaga and wastefulness from Brighton prevented Chelsea from being on the end of a thrashing.
The passive hosts were carved open with ease numerous times and the stats show how bad it could have been.Danny Welbeck’s header cancelled out Gallagher’s deflected shot to ensure the scores were level at half-time, despite Brighton breaking records with their dominance before the break.And the 12 shots the visitors attempted was the most Chelsea have conceded at home in the first-half since top-flight records began.
