Chelsea vs Liverpool<\/h2>\n

Chelsea are currently locked in Premier League action with Liverpool at Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n

After Manchester City saw off Arsenal on Saturday, both sides really needed to secure three points on Sunday to ensure they keep some sort of pace with the league leaders.<\/p>\n

Chelsea, in particular, could not afford a loss on the day as it would have meant they went 11 points behind Man City with less than half of the season to play.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately for Chelsea, they would fall behind early in the tie.<\/p>\n

Christian Pulisic was gifted a chance to put the Blues in front early on after some smart pressing from Kai Havertz, but the American fluffed his lines.<\/p>\n

Chalobah targeted<\/h2>\n

Moments after this chance, Trevoh Chalobah opted to, somewhat bizarrely, attempt to clear an incoming ball with his head despite using his feet seeming like the wisest option.<\/p>\n

This would lead to Chalobah\u2019s attempted clearance allowing Sadio Mane to pick up the loose ball and round Edouard Mendy to make it 1-0.<\/p>\n
