An outstanding moment of the game was Pedro Neto’s goal in the 33rd minute of the first half. After a center of Nicolas Jackson at the wheel he could finish from the large area managing to score in the rival arch.
Pedro Neto crashed a shot in the stick and missed the opportunity to increase the difference in the 93th minute of the second half.
Enzo Fernández’s prominence consecrated him as the best player in the game. Chelsea’s steering wheel put 1 goal, made 28 correct passes and looked for the opposite arch with 3 shots.
It was also key at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Cole Palmer. Chelsea’s steering wheel stood out in front of Los Angeles FC as it gave 48 correct passes and kicked the arch 6 times.
Chelsea coach, Enzo Maresca, ordered a 4-5-1 formation with Robert Sánchez in the arch; Reece James, Tosin Adarabioyo, Levi Colwill and Marc Cucurella on the defensive line; Moisés Caicedo, Roméo Lavia, Pedro Neto, Cole Palmer and Noni Madueke in the middle; and Nicolas Jackson in the attack.
For their part, those conducted by Steve Cherundolo were planted with a 4-3-3 strategy with Hugo Lloris under the three sticks; Sergi Palencia, Aaron Long, Eddie Segura and Ryan Hollingshead in Defense; Mark Delgado, Igor Jesus and Timothy Tillman in the middle of the court; and Nathan Ordaz, Jeremy Ebobisse and Denis Bouanga in the lead.
The match at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium was led by referee Jesús Valenzuela Sáez.
For the next date, the blues will visit Flamengo. On the other hand, LAFC will receive St.
