Leicester vs Chelsea: Chelsea defeated Leicester City 3-1 to earn their first away victory in the Premier League since October.
In just 11 minutes, Graham Potter’s team took the lead courtesy to a fantastic volley from former fox Ben Chilwell.
When Joao Felix completed a fantastic team move in the 35th minute, Chelsea thought they had doubled their lead. However, a VAR review determined that the goal was offside and it was disallowed.
Leicester City’s equalizer came four minutes later. Ricardo Pereira picked Felix’s pocket, and Patson Daka thundered home from a distance to tie the score at one.
Yet, it didn’t take long for The Blues to regain the lead. Kai Havertz received a beautiful pass from Enzo Fernandez that he was able to flick over Danny Ward and into the goal.
Ten minutes from the end, Mateo Kovacic made a superb improvised volley to give Chelsea all three points.
