Chelsea also lost to Fulham! Joao Félix receives a red card in his first match

Fulham and Chelsea met on the seventh day of the English Premier League. In the London derby played at Craven Cottage, the home team defeated their reported rivals 2-1 and won their 4th match in a row. With this defeat, Chelsea have only 1 win in their last 9 games.

Fulham took a 1-0 lead through former Chelsea player Willian’s goal on 25 minutes, while the away side caught up 1-1 with defender Koulibaly on 47 minutes. Fulham’s winner came on the minute 73, and Vinicius, who appeared in the starting eleven in Mitrovic’s absence, scored his first goal of the season.

Joao Félix, a new signing for Chelsea, who has many injured players, saw a direct red card for a foul on Tete in the 58th minute of the game in the starting 11. Felix, for whom Chelsea paid a €10m rental for 20 league games, will be banned for 3 league games under the rules.

With this result, Fulham moved up to 6th place with 31 points and more than one game, while Chelsea, who accumulated 25 points in 18 games, stayed in 10th place.

Fulham will face Newcastle United in the league this weekend. Chelsea will host another London team, Crystal Palace.
