Chelsea equal their worst-ever record in emphatic 3-0 defeat at Brighton
Chelsea suffered a 3-0 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion in the Premier League at the Amex Stadium on Tuesday evening.
Kaoru Mitoma could’ve broken the deadlock inside the opening three minutes after he got onto Pascal Gross’ cross at the back post, but his volley was palmed away by Robert Sanchez.
From the resulting corner, Ferdi Kadioglu reacted quickest in the box and rifled a volley home to open the scoring.
In the 15th minute, Jan Paul Van Hecke almost doubled the host’s lead after he met Gross’ cross, but his header was kept out by Sanchez.
Moments later, a poor error from Sanchez handed the ball to Yankuba Minteh, who picked out Jack Hinshelwood, only for Trevoh Chalobah to heroically clear off the line.
Two minutes after the restart, Chelsea produced their first real attacking moment, as Romeo Lavia almost restored parity for the Blues, but his effort from range flashed just past the post.
