Watch: Ruben Loftus-Cheek Own Goal Adds To Chelsea’s Misery
Chelsea #Chelsea
Leandro Trossard opened the scoring early before Ruben Loftus-Cheek made it 2-0 to Brighton & Hove Albion shortly after.
As the corner was swung in in the 14th minute, a header was directed towards goal and Ruben Loftus-Cheek, in attempt to clear, could not help divert it wide.
A very unlucky goal from a Chelsea perspective that now puts them in an extremely difficult position for the rest of the match.
Leandro Trossard’s early goal can be watched here on the Chelsea Transfer Room website.
