On Sunday, a very intense match took place in London. "Chelsea" defeated their recent key rivals "Brighton" 3:2.

Mauricio Pochettino's team started the match excellently. Enzo Fernandez and Levi Colwillo's goals allowed them to create a two-goal advantage.

Conoro Gallagher's dangerous play tripped up the "aristocrats." He received two yellow cards, leaving "Chelsea" at a disadvantage. Furthermore, before halftime Facundo Bounanotte narrowed the result.

In the middle of the second half, James Milner committed a foul against Mykhailo Mudryk in the penalty area, giving the London team the chance to once again create a two-goal lead. Enzo Fernandez was precise.

Joao Pedro scored a goal in added time, making the last minutes very intense. The referee had awarded a penalty kick to "Chelsea," but VAR forced the referee to review the episode, and the decision was overturned.

After the final whistle, there were a few altercations in the middle of the field, with some occurring during the match as well. The "Brighton" players and coach Roberto De Zerbi were not happy with the referees.

Including Gallagher's fouls, in this match, referee Craig Pawson showed a total of 10 yellow cards.
