PL2 report and highlights: Chelsea 2 West Ham United 3
27 JAN 2023
Goals from Charlie Webster and Mason Burstow were not enough to prevent defeat in the London derby at home against West Ham United.
Our development squad suffered their first defeat in the PL2 since August, in a pulsating game at Kingsmeadow. Five goals, a red card and tremendous saves were at the centre of an action-packed London derby.
West Ham came out of the gates quickly and were two-nil up by the half-way point of the first period despite our young Blues' positive start. George Earthy and Divin Mubama were their goalscorers.
Nonetheless, we battled hard to get ourselves back into the game as Webster struck a fine shot from distance which found the top corner.
Hutchinson and Burstow went close to getting us level, but before the break it was the Hammers who dealt a huge blow to our chances, as Mubama scored a fine solo goal.
The second period saw us create numerous opportunities to get something out of the game as Hutchinson and Malik Mothersille both went close. Burstow then gave us our second as he was in the right place to finish off a fine team move.
Despite our efforts at an equaliser, the away side stood firm and saw the rest of the game out. An unfortunate event during the game was that 10 minutes before the full-time whistle, Derrick Abu was sent-off for a second bookable offence.
Mark Robinson’s men were looking to extend the four-game winning streak that they had put together and the undefeated start to 2023.
We looked threatening in the opening moments of the game, as the neat combinations our side have become renowned for this season were on show again.
Burstow had our first clear opportunity, and he swung a left boot at the ball after Hutchinson’s lay-off and it only just went wide.
== Early blow ==
Despite our promising start though it was the young Hammers who took the lead through Earthy, as he latched onto a loose clearance from Bergstrom and slotted underneath the keeper to give his side the lead.
It went quiet following the goal as neither side committed bodies forward but then we created a good chance to level.
Burstow did well to deliver into the box having been under pressure from two opponents and Mothersille met the header, but he could not steer it on target.
== Goals coming fast ==
The away side doubled their lead soon after as our young Blues failed to clear from a corner kick with Mubama prodding home. A floated cross found Kaelan Casey at the back-post and he put the ball back into a dangerous area and after a scramble between Mubama and Bergstrom, the striker managed to turn the ball into the net.
We halved the deficit almost immediately after their goal as Mothersille laid the ball off for Webster who unleashed a fierce strike which flew into the top corner of the net.
We were beginning to get our confidence back after a slow start as Hutchinson jinked his way into the box and his powerful shot needed to be tipped over by the goalkeeper.
Hutchinson was picking up the ball in good positions and he had a half chance from distance as the young Hammers’ backline stood off him, but he failed to keep his shot down as it went over the bar.
== Hammers on top ==
Just as it looked like we were going to equalise before the break, it was Mubama who gave him a second and his side a third as he did well to beat Brooking and then he calmly cut in and fired into the far corner of the goal.
There were strong penalty shouts, but they were waved away by the referee as Williams’ shot appeared to come off the arm of a West Ham defender.
We had the first chance of the second period and some good work down the left saw Casadei lay off Webster who had a go at getting his second, but his blocked shot fell to Mothersille whose eventual shot was straight at the keeper.
An unbelievable save from Hegyi denied Burstow an almost certain goal after his header was tipped onto the bar by the West Ham goalkeeper before being cleared away.
== Increasing the pressure ==
We were keeping the pressure on our opponents as a period of sustained pressure saw Hutchinson fire goalwards from just outside the box, but his shot was parried away.
Almost immediately after this Casadei rose highest to meet a Derrick Abu cross but his header just went over.
The goal finally came, and it was Burstow who finished off a fine team move as Hutchinson combined with second-half substitute Harvey Vale and the latter put in a delightful cross which Burstow tucked away.
Appiah-Forson and Swyer had chances to extend their side's lead but a combination of good defending from Abu and poor finishing prevented a fourth West Ham goal.
As we pushed for an equaliser, West Ham caught us with a counter, and it was stopped illegally by Abu, and he was then sent-off for a second bookable offence.
We came agonisingly close to drawing level as Vale was involved again and he delivered a great cross which found Hutchinson at the back post, but his effort was cleared spectacularly off the line by Luizao.
In stoppage time Webster’s volley drew out another great save from Hegyi who was keeping out our young Blues.
We did still have some defending to do and Jayden Wareham cleared a header off the line after a corner from the young Hammers.
We suffered our first defeat since August in the PL2 as West Ham managed to hold on and secure the three points.
Our development squad’s result tonight means that remain top of the league for the moment but Manchester City with two games in hand have a chance to climb above us.
------------------
第一個失球不知道攝影師出了什麼技術性問題一直拍觀眾席和天空，後來看重播原來是伯格斯特魯大腳直接送球給對手，看來又回到外租前的狀態了啊.... 第二球是定位球盯人失誤，除此之外其實踢得不錯，尤其是立刻追回來一球，馬德希爾作球意識到了，韋伯斯特也不負眾望踢進遠射，之後攻勢更加兇猛，不過哈欽森踢前腰傳球意識不錯，但似乎就少了單兵作戰的破壞力，上半場他最大的威脅還是一次從肋部切入的射門；伯斯托展現了中鋒背身拿球的能力，但兩邊翼衛對進攻的幫助不大，以至於最後進到禁區的攻勢次數不多，最後補時被進一球實在很傷，一個後場長傳布魯金竟然落點判斷失誤被過，韋伯斯特被硬吃打死角，伯格斯特魯又什麼都撲不到了，西漢姆幾乎是上半場所有機會都進球，1-3 是有點誇張。
下半場一開始馬德希爾近距離踢太正、伯斯托頭球被神撲、哈欽森中路遠射又被撲，換上維爾踢左路後終於送個好傳中給伯斯托吃；阿布兩黃換一紅有點愚蠢，不過攻勢幾乎完全沒有減弱，維爾傳中被門線解圍、韋伯斯特中路射門被神撲，雖說西漢姆也是有兩、三個機會沒進球，但最終 2-3 這個結果只能說是把握力和門將造成了差異，MoM 除了西漢姆門將之外應該是給韋伯斯特，那個大範圍跑動+盤帶推進動力+射門實在太搶眼了；最後，卡斯提略好久不見，真想念他的精準傳中啊，不過應該是最後一個賽季了，且看且珍惜....
