What reaction? In the 0-0 remained the Chelsea and Liverpool at “Stamford Bridge” for the postponed (8th) matchday of the Premier League. And if the problem for the (TV) spectators was the match-soup they saw, the biggest problem is faced by the teams themselves who failed to smile after the negative results they had.
If the truth is that the “blues” should be more upset, who with the service technician and former assistant Graham Potter, Bruno Saltor, on their bench they were considerably more threatening than their opponents. In fact, they saw two goals disallowed, in the 26th minute by James for offside and in the 50th minute by Havertz for a handball. The main player for the “reds” started Kostas Tsimikaswho was replaced in the 66th minute by Robertson.
In the three games that started a quarter earlier – all for the 7th postponed game – the Aston Villa and Leeds they defeated and sunk them even more Leicester (1-2) and Nottingham Forest (2-1), respectively.
At the King Power Stadium, Watkins gave Aston Villa the lead in the 24th minute. Leicester managed to level the match with a fine effort and finish from Barnes in the 35th minute, but Dewsbury-Hall’s dismissal in the 70th minute (two yellow cards in six minutes) cost them. And that’s because Traore, taking advantage of Iversen’s bad position, scored with a terrible spot kick in the 87th minute.
On the other hand, at “Elland Road”, Nottingham Forest took the lead with Mankala in the 12th minute, but Leeds turned it around before halftime, with the “strikes” of Harrison (25th minute) and Sinistera (45th minute + 1th minute). As much as he fought in the second half, his team couldn’t come back Steven Cooperwhose position among the neo-enlightened becomes even more precarious.
Finally, at the “Vitality Stadium”, Brighton prevailed 2-0 thanks to goals from Ferguson (27′) and Enciso (90’+1′) and continues their amazing run that finds them in 6th place. It should be noted that, due to Ramadan, at the beginning of the first half there was a brief interruption so that Hamed Traore and Dango Ouattara of the home team could have a small meal.
