Graham Potter\u2019s men were brilliant against a good attacking team (Chelsea) as they continue with their great run of form in this season\u2019s Premier League. Thomas Tuchel\u2019s side lost two crucial points again which would see them in the top 2 of the Premier League 2021\/22 points table. They had missed the chance to go above Liverpool who is in second place, having 45 points and a game in hand.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea FC\u2019s players were looking bright in the first 45 minutes but they gave away their one-nil lead in the second half which cost them 2 points and also the top 2 position. Chelsea\u2019s midfielder Hakim Ziyech scored the opening goal of the game in the 28th minute. It was a great finish by the 28-year-old after playing a great one-two with Ngolo Kante. The visitors take the lead against Graham Potter\u2019s men and the way Chelsea was playing it always seemed that this goal was coming.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Points are shared at Amex Stadium after an exciting encounter on the south coast \ud83d\udca5<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/BHACHE?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#BHACHE<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/WDHSYdWtJF\">pic.twitter.com\/WDHSYdWtJF<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Premier League (@premierleague) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/premierleague\/status\/1483557807098150914?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 18, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>The second half wasn\u2019t good for Thomas Tuchel as they conceded a goal in the 60th minute of the game. It was an amazing heading goal by Brighton\u2019s defender named Adam Webster who levels it up for the host. Though only two goals were scored in the match it was exciting to watch these two teams play as they both kept on attacking each other\u2019s goal. Well, It is hard to say that who was unlucky to get only a single point in this game as Graham Potter\u2019s men were exceptional against the Champions League winners of 2020\/21 (Chelsea). The game could have gone either way but it was all balanced at the end and the teams had no option but to share the points.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chelsea battled it out for another draw against Graham Potter\u2019s men, this is their second draw of the season against Brighton in the same month. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":202,"featured_media":33634,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[1862,2416,177,2549,2377,424,453],"class_list":["post-11158","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-football","tag-brighton","tag-brighton-hove-albion","tag-champions-league","tag-chelsea-fc","tag-hakim-ziyech","tag-romelu-lukaku","tag-thomas-tuchel"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11158","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/202"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11158"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11158\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/33634"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11158"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11158"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11158"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
