London’s Chelsea secured a victory away against Nottingham Forest in Matchweek 9 of the Premier League, with precise strikes from Acheampong, Neto, and James sealing the win for the Blues.
However, Enzo Maresca’s side saw their triumph overshadowed by yet another sending-off. In the 87th minute, Malo Gusto received a second yellow card and was sent off early. Notably, the Italian manager himself was absent from the touchline due to suspension.
It’s worth noting that Gusto’s dismissal marked Chelsea’s fourth red card of the current campaign. Previously, Robert Sánchez, Trevoh Chalobah, and João Pedro had also been sent off.
Earlier, we reported that Chelsea talisman Enzo Fernández missed the clash against Nottingham due to injury.
