Chelsea, the Premier League giants with poor performance, suddenly fell into a trough after the 6-0 bloodshed of Everton in the 33rd round, first lost to the Blue Moon Army Manchester City in the FA Cup semi-finals, lost the only chance to win the championship, and booked the ending of the four empty, and then in the 29th round of the make-up match, 5-0 bloodbath by Arsenal away, directly nailed to the pillar of shame, after a short rest, Chelsea ushered in the 35th round of the Premier League test, Pochettino led the team to the away challenge of the strongest dark horse in the Premier League this season, Aston Villa, who is temporarily fourth in the standings and is expected to qualify for the Champions League, but Tottenham behind him is in hot pursuitAfter the game started, Villa's morale was like a rainbow, and they took a two-goal lead early, but in the second half, Chelsea chased two goals in a row to equalize the score, and at the last moment, Disasi's countdown was blown, and finally Chelsea shook hands with Villa 2-2!
In order to be able to halt the slump, Pochettino did not hold back on the road, putting on the 4-2-3-1 formation that the Blues are most familiar with, with Petrovic continuing to be the starting goalkeeper, Chalobah, Silva, Benoit Badiashile and Marc Cucurella in defence, Caicedo and Conor Gallagher in the back, Palmer in the middle of the midfield, Mykhailo Mudryk and Madueke on either side, and Jackson as the lone striker.
With the referee's whistle, Chelsea were firmly in possession on the road, while Aston Villa relied on counter-attacks to maneuver with the Blues and got off to a fantastic start in the fourth minute, smashing a through ball through the Chelsea defence with ease, followed by a pinpoint inverted triangle pass that found McGinn in the middle, whose strike resulted in Cucurella's own goal and gave Villa an early 1-0 lead.
In the 16th minute, Jackson received a long pass from his teammates over the top, got a single chance, and calmly played in the face of the Villa goalkeeper, but at the moment of his teammate's pass, Jackson was in an offside position, and the referee decisively canceled the goal, and in the 35th minute, Chelsea's attack made a comeback, Jackson received Cucurella's cross and shook his head to attack, but unfortunately he was unlucky, and the ball hit the post.
Aston Villa, who escaped the disaster, extended their lead in the 42nd minute, Rodgers received a diagonal pass from Cash on the left side of the penalty area, shook off the defender, and directly kicked into the near corner.
Unwilling to lose, Chelsea continued to press the attack in the second half, and after completing a steal in the front field in the 63rd minute, they launched a counterattack, Palmer's cross, successfully found Gallagher, although the latter was tackled, but Madueke behind him was the first to kill, with a low shot, to help Chelsea chase the score to 1-2.
Chelsea, who were full of morale, equalised in the 81st minute, Madueke dribbled the ball to the front of the field on the right and handed the ball to Conor Gallagher, who cut inside and fired a world wave directly with his feet, helping Chelsea chase two goals in a row, and the score also came to two draws.
In the 95th minute of stoppage time, substitute Disasi used a header to break through Villa's goal again, but the referee ruled that the Chelsea player had fouled first and canceled the goal after reviewing VAR, and the helpless Pochettino could only watch the three points in his hand turn into a point!
