Before the start of the season, the Premier League giants Blues Chelsea, after upgrading the lineup, became a popular candidate for the Premier League championship, but with the deepening of the season, the performance of Lukaku, the heaviest reinforcement monster in the offseason, did not meet expectations, which also made them open and go low and gradually opened the gap between Liverpool and Manchester City, completely withdrawing from the ranks of the Premier League title, but their third position in the standings is relatively reliable, but the dignity and heritage of the giants make them strive for the victory of every game. Still Chelsea's next goal, in the 34th round of the Premier League, Chelsea sat at Stamford Bridge Stadium, facing the visiting Hammers to help West Ham United, the whole game Chelsea completely suppressed the opponent at both ends of the attack and defense, but the team did not perform well in the goal, so that they could not break the deadlock on the field, seeing that the team was in trouble, Tuchel waved a big hand to replace the little magic beast Lukaku, gave Chelsea a set of offensive play, and quickly achieved results, Although Jorginho was unable to score the penalty created by Lukaku, Captain America scored a deadlock in the last minute to help Chelsea win 1-0 over West Ham United!
After returning to the Premier League, Lukaku was once regarded by fans as the ultimate answer to the offensive problem, but in the games he played, Chelsea's overall offensive fluency has declined significantly, which is why he has gradually lost the trust and main position of manager Tuchel, and in this game with West Ham United, Chelsea still sent the speed trident of Havertz, Werner and Mount, hoping to tear apart the Hammers defense with super impact.
But it is clear that West Ham United are prepared, this campaign they discharged the defensive system of three centre-backs, relying on the numerical advantage to greatly compress the Blues' offensive space, which is also the reason why Chelsea, which is far ahead of the possession rate, did not complete a target shot in the first half, although Chelsea completed 26 shots in the whole game, refreshing the single-game shooting record of the Premier League this season, but there are not many really threatening attacking opportunities.
After seeing that the team could not score on the offensive end, Tuchel chose to give Lukaku a chance, hoping that he could rely on his own personal impact to disrupt the West Ham United defense, it turned out that Tuchel's on-the-spot change was very correct, after the appearance of the little magic beast, the Blues' offensive threat became bigger, and in the 83rd minute, it was Lukaku's impact that won a penalty for Chelsea, but last year's Golden Ball Award was popular, because the penalty directly led to Italy's failure to qualify for the World Cup, Jorginho, once again missed a penalty, He was already completely caught in the penalty spell, which is why many fans want Tuchel to change players to take the penalty.
Just when the fans thought that the game would end in a flat end, Captain America Pulisic stood up, in the 90th minute Alonso left side of the bottom of the inverted triangle cross, the middle of the follow-up Pulisic pushed the merit, scored the only goal of the game, helped Chelsea kill West Ham United in the last moment, further consolidated his position in the third place in the table, but in an interview after the game, Tuchel also admitted the fact that After the end of the season, Rudiger will leave the team, which also made many Blues fans sigh!
