Noni Madueke has just won Chelsea an 88th minute penalty and scored it himself.
The referee is very lucky that the VAR was there to help. Madueke tempted the challenge in with a quick turn, and the Eberechi Eze obliged. But it wasn’t spotted at first, and Palace ran all the way down the other end with a chance to score first.
It was what we deserved for a game where we created some good chances, although in the second half we weren’t up to much.
