Up Blues, Chelsea has taken the lead after a while before the Referee was called to attention on the hand ball committed by Arsenal player inside their box. Palmer scored the penalty kick with a brilliant shot to the left corner of the post.
If I was told in my wildest dreams that Chelsea will net the ball first in this match, I will not believe this. Although it is as a result of a mistake by the Arsenal club which led to the hand ball that was turned to a goal via the penalty shootout by Palmer. But that's part of the game. Arsenal is in good shape in this game and I expected nothing but a win by Arsenal. The last match Arsenal played against Chelsea too was won by Arsenal.
Chelsea has the advantage now to win Arsenal but how are we sure that they would use this opportunity wisely to secure a win. Arsenal will definitely fight back for an equalizer and who knows if Arsenal might even win the game. There will be joy in Stamford Bridge this evening if Chelsea ends up winning this game.
Chelsea 1-0 Arsenal
I am more of the conviction that Arsenal will still win this game. But with what I saw, Chelsea came really prepared and I did not expect otherwise from the Arsenal players as well. 1-0 against Arsenal is not the end of the game as all hopes are not lost yet. But of course, these guys need to up their game at this moment to make the fans proud. I believe second half will be tougher.
