2:0! Tonali flashed, Jacquesson elbowed red card, Newcastle kills two birds with one stone, Manchester City fell to 4th

There are only three rounds of games left in the Premier League. With the fact that the championship and relegation are clear, the competition for the Champions League seat has also entered the final critical stage; Manchester City took the lead in this round and was tied by Southampton. Chelsea, ranked 5th, and Newcastle, ranked 4th, ushered in a head-on confrontation. Tonali started the blitz, Jacques was sent off with a red card, Guimaraes secured the victory in the end stage, and the Blues lost 0:2 away.

Chelsea just advanced to the finals in the European Cup last week, while Newcastle waited for it one game a week; the two teams in the first game both had 63 points, and whoever won could replace Manchester City's third place. In this key Champions League tie-up match, the two teams naturally sent all their main players, Maduaike, Palmer, Neto and Jacquesson were the forward combination; Enzo and Lavia both midfielders; Kesedo recovered and Chaloba Jr., Colewell and Cucurella joined forces with the defense line, and the goalkeeper was Sanchez. In Newcastle, many main players including Isaac, Gordon, Tonali, Guimarães, Pope, etc. also appeared in the starting lineup.

Just 2 minutes into the opening game, Chelsea's goal was declared lost; Lavia held the ball in the backcourt and was cut off, Murphy made a cross, and Tonali shot into the net through the goal, 1:0! Taking the lead early, Newcastle also took advantage of its home court to beat Chelsea City Gate one after another; not only did the Blues not fight back, but the forward group couldn't even get a chance.

In the 35th minute, Jacquesson defeated Botman while fighting for the ball. After watching VAR, the referee directly sent off Jacquesson with a red card; because this foul may be listed as a violent foul, Jacquesson will be suspended for 3 games; he will not be able to play in the Premier League for two rounds of the season, and he can only wait until the second round of next season to play. One minute later, Tonali made a precise cross from the right 45 degrees, Dan Bourne headed the ball and hit the crossbar slightly higher, and Chelsea escaped!

In the second half, Newcastle took the initiative to give up the ball and played a counterattack. Although Chelsea gained a certain amount of initiative, it did not cause much actual threats. In the 61st minute, Palmer advanced to the ribs and made a slight transfer. Cucurella unloaded the ball from the left penalty area and shot low at a low angle. Pope quickly went down to the ground to save the ball; in the 69th minute, Murphy made a clever pass, and Guimaraes stepped forward and exerted too much force at a small angle. In the 81st minute, Enzo swung his legs in the penalty area and shot from the far corner, but was still blocked from the baseline by Pope; in the 87th minute, Gusto crossed the top and hurried into the penalty area, and James headed the ball higher than the crossbar.

In the 90th minute, Dan Bourne passed the ball from the left, Guimaraes decisively took a long shot from the outside, and the ball hit Gusto's calf and changed slightly. The ball went over Sanchez's head and fell into the net, 2:0! In the end, Chelsea lost 0-2 away to Newcastle, continuing to rank fifth and scored with Villa; if Forest wins this round, the Blues will fall out of the Champions League; Chelsea will still have to play against Manchester United and Nottingham Forest in the last two rounds. After winning, Newcastle has surpassed Manchester City to reach the third place in the standings.
