Chelsea played very well in the first half of this game without getting a goal, and Joao Felix was central to that.
He made his own luck and his own chances – but all his pretty flourishes lead to nothing.
He started the second half in the same way, missing a header, but it wasn’t long after that he used his exquisite skill to score.
Ben Chilwell played a first time cross to him, and Felix placed it at the far post, totally blind. 1-0 Blues.
