Giroud was not enough for Chelsea

First scorer of the game during this Chelsea-Aston Villa played on Monday in the context of the 16^e Premier League lifting, Giroud did not allow the Blues to win (1-1).

Only one victory in five days of the championship, Chelsea sticks out my tongue at the end of the year. Facing Aston Villa this Monday on behalf of the 16^e act of the Premier League, the Blues had the opportunity to place themselves temporarily at the foot of the podium. It was a waste of time for Frank Lampard’s men, decidedly crumbly at their base – even when they lead in the score.

Holder for the occasion, Giroud fulfilled his mission by finding the flaw shortly after half an hour of play on a Chilwell cross – not without having been at the very origin of the action. Only this 18^e achievement of the calendar year was not enough for his team (1-0, 34^e). At the start of the second half, while Christensen was on the ground, the Villans responded with a close range recovery from El Ghazi (1-1, 50^e).

Chelsea lagging behind

1-1, the result is certainly not that expected by the Londoners, who with two more matches on the clock remain in the wake of their opponents of the day – fifth – in the same unit. Six lengths from a leader, Liverpool, who will play his 16^e duels of the season in two days in Newcastle.

🎬 The best of Giroud in two acts.

Act I: back to goal, deflection to put partners, throws, facing the game.
Act II: race in the penalty area, unstoppable helmet blow.
