Chelsea beat Newcastle United in dramatic fashion through Kai Havertz’s goal. This is a goal that entertains the Blues and their supporters.
Chelsea host Newcastle in the 29th week of the Premier League at Stamford Bridge, Sunday (13/3/2022) night WIB. Chelsea who appeared dominant made it difficult to score goals from the early minutes.
The deadlock was only broken in the 89th minute when Havertz received Mateo Kovacic’s long pass and finished it through a flick in front of goal.
The 1-0 score lasted for Chelsea’s victory while at the same time keeping Manchester City and Liverpool in the top two positions. However, victory means more than that because Chelsea’s internal conditions are in turmoil at the moment.
Following the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Roman Abramovich had to relinquish his ownership at Chelsea. Before selling the club, the British government froze all of its assets in the country, including the Blue.
As a result, Chelsea can do nothing but keep playing and pay the players and coaching staff. Conditions worsened when Chelsea’s account was blocked, causing the club’s economy to be disrupted.
This does not include one by one sponsors began to leave Chelsea.
However, the Chelsea players continued to appear spartan as usual, because they knew only a win could entertain the club and the supporters.
“It was really difficult (the situation of the club after Abramovich was suspended), because we players can still train and do what we love. We are sorry for what everyone has experienced. The fans, the workers, not only us as players,” said Kai Havertz to BBC Sport.
“It’s a difficult time for everyone. We are trying to give as much as possible for them at this time. We have to stick together, we keep trying to do this and make them happy,” he continued.
