Stamford Bridge Clash Ends in Agonizing Draw After Red Card and Late Goal
London, England – In a hard-fought match at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea and Burnley drew in a game full of emotions and controversies. Chelsea dominated possession with 67%, but failed to translate it into a clear victory. Joao Pedro opened the scoring for the home side in the 4th minute, assisted by P.

The second half was even more intense. The turning point came in the 72nd minute, when W. Fofana received his second yellow card, followed by a red card and subsequent expulsion. Despite playing with ten men, Chelsea tried to maintain their lead. Burnley, with 33% possession, persistently sought the equalizer, managing a total of 10 shots, 4 of them on target.
In the 90th minute, just when it seemed Chelsea would secure the win, Z. Flemming of Burnley, assisted by J. Ward-Prowse, scored a crucial goal that leveled the score. The final minutes were marked by more yellow cards, for R. Sanchez and J. Hato of Chelsea, and for J. Laurent of Burnley.
