Chelsea players push to take the penalty, pochettino’s stern warning.
Last night at Stamford Bridge was magical for Chelsea. Four goals, including a ‘perfect’ hat-trick (three goals with right foot, left foot and head is called a perfect hat-trick) by the great Cole Palmer. All in all a 6-0 win to remember for a long time.
After such a perfect performance by the team, any coach should be proud. But despite the satisfaction of a big win against Everton, Chelsea coach Mauricio Pochettino cannot be completely relaxed. It can be said that an incident of the match does not allow Pochettino to rest.
What is the event Penalty Squabble: Pochettino’s Stern ?
After leading 4-0 in the first half, Chelsea’s chance to score in the second half came in the 64th minute. Chelsea got a penalty when Palmer was fouled inside the box. The ball was in Malo Gusto’s hands after the referee awarded the penalty. Noni Madueke and Nicholas Jackson rushed to take it from him. But Madueke grabbed the ball with his paw. Madueke and Jackson were at loggerheads for some time thereafter. After a while, the Brazilian defender Thiago Silva came to settle the dispute between the two.
The experienced Silva somehow managed to remove Madueke. The ball was in Jackson’s hands. Palmer and captain Connor Gallagher then came forward to take the ball from Madueke. Gallagher took the ball into Palmer’s hands amid the chatter. Then Jackson ran again to take the ball from Palmal.
At this time, Palmer pushed Jackson away with his hand. Gallagher somehow forced Jackson and Madueke away as Palmer placed the ball in the spot to take the penalty. Later, Palmer scored his fourth and the team’s fifth goal from the penalty spot.
After the match, coach Pochettino expressed disappointment with the behaviour of the team’s players. Argentina’s coach said that Palmer should have taken the penalty. Besides, he said that such childish behaviour will not be tolerated.”I cannot accept this kind of behaviour.” I told them, I have put up with your childish behaviour for the last time. Such behaviour is impossible after such a performance. If we want to be the best team, we have to stop this (chasing among ourselves) and think together. They were all involved in this situation. Next time I do this, I’ll exclude everyone. It’s not a joke.
