The way the game started for Chelsea was disappointing as after twenty minutes Eddie Howe’s side were already two goals ahead. The first, just after three minutes, after a recovery in the middle of the field that ended with a great save from Robert Sánchez against Gordon and a ball that Chalobah could not clear, so the goal was passed to Nick Woltemade.
What a good connection!
Woltemade opened Newcastle’s 1-0 draw with Chelsea in the Premier League.

It was the German who appeared again shortly afterwards, fended off a cross from Gordon and made it 2-0. And he even almost got his first one hat trick with this shirt, after another great cross from Gordon, which he connected with his right boot, although this time he was faced with a great save from Sánchez.
You give him something special and he doesn’t forgive you! Woltemade anticipated Gordon’s cross and scored Newcastle’s 2-0 lead against Chelsea.

Chelsea, who managed to reduce a goal that was disallowed for handball by Pedro Neto, had to wait for the second half to recover and did so from a set piece with a spectacular shot from Reece James in the 4th minute. The captain, a completely different footballer now that injuries are no longer tormenting him day in and day out, hit a ball next to the opening post, away from Aaron Ramsdale, and found the back of the net.
PLEASE NOTE, GREAT GOAL! Great free kick from James for Chelsea to score, who are now 2-1 with Newcastle

The kick gave Chelsea a glimmer of hope, which referee Andrew Madley reinforced by disallowing a very clear foul from Chalobah, who forgot the ball and shoved Gordon in the back as he carried out an attack from the local team.
When Enzo, who had started to warm up at the end of the first half, was on the pitch from the ninth minute, the visitors’ game found order and it was a duel between Robert Sánchez and Joao Pedro that ended in a draw. The Spanish goalkeeper began the counterattack with a long-range shot in search of his striker and invented the goal despite being in an open field, under cover and thirty meters from the goal. With a targeted head control, he fended off Robert Sánchez’s shot and thus defused Thiaw’s shot. He reached the area and hit Ramsdale low.
THE BLUES BIND YOU
Joao Pedro put his chest down and went all out to secure Chelsea’s 2-2 win over Newcastle in the Premier League.

With the score at 2-2 and Chelsea in prime position to take the three points, the truth is that the best chance was for Newcastle, who would have deserved to win in the dying minutes if it hadn’t been for Reece James, who saved Harvey Barnes’ 3-2 with a tackle, and Barnes himself, who missed a volley all alone at the far post.
The point is worth more to Chelsa, who remain fourth with 29 points, than to Newcastle, who have not yet fully taken off in this Premier League. The “Magpies” are in eleventh place with 23 points, six away from the Champions League places.
