Crash alert in the left lane.
Chelsea took the three points against Brentford (2-1) this Sunday, but Enzo Maresca would have been fine without tensions at the end of the game. Spanish full-back Marc Cucurella, goalscorer for the first time this season, received a red card… after the final whistle for “bad attitude”.
He apparently couldn't hold back
Already warned in added time (90e+5), he received a second yellow for pushing away Brentford German winger Kevin Schade during an altercation, leading to his expulsion even though the match was over. Result: the hairy Chelsea man will not be able to play against Everton next weekend, but he will still be able to stretch his legs in the Conference League this week against Shamrock Rovers. Nothing to prevent Blues to smile after this new victory which allows them to stay in contact with Liverpool and continue to dream of the title.
As long as he doesn't miss Boxing Day, it's okay.
