E be like say dem play ‘who go fit collect red card pass’ wey dem foiled dem game plan just five minutes into the match. Goalkeeper Robert Sanchez no wan hear word as hin go collect earlier red card after e foul Bryan Mbeumo.
Dis one make Chelsea manager, Enzo Maresca, run scatter hin head. E confess say everything wey dem plan don waka after just four minutes, talk less of the match self. As if say e no enough, Bruno Fernandes fire United ahead after just 14 minutes. Na serious wah!
Trevoh Chalobah no hold back as e describe dem first 15 minutes as the ‘worst ever’ wey Chelsea don play this season. Wetin be dis? Na so early wey dem start dey draw serious conclusion?

All dis palava make dis first half historical as e carry two red cards, two or more goals, and three substitutions for any Premier League match. If you find anyone wey don see dis kind show before, make dem raise dem hand. Na Casemiro, wey bring United lead to 2-nil, come receive hin own red card before halftime, e be like yin-yang! Both teams con dey struggle as cada player dey try hold dem self for 10-man squad.
Maresca dey sweat for sideline, no be joke, as e talk say e no go prefer lose goalkeeper than go down one goal, talk more of two. Recovery go be hard as Sanchez dey face suspension next match. Na double wahala dis one!

Even when dem play on level ground, Chelsea still dey slow with dem moves, wey Wayne Rooney don notice.
Despite all the drama, United do enough to nab di three points wey dem need jor. E be like say dis win fit rejuvenate dem season wey don already dey shakey. Amorim—as United boss—go need all di prayers Wey him fit get after last week’s Manchester derby disaster.
In summary, e be like say Chelsea go need stronger strategy next time. Maresca still dey worry about Palmer injury wey don happen twice for dis season.
