US EditionSubstitutes step up as Chelsea snatch 3-2 comeback win over West Ham
Chelsea's halftime substitutions led to a comeback from 0-2 down, with Enzo Fernández scoring a stoppage-time winner in a match that ended with a West Ham red card.
- Chelsea battled back from a two-goal deficit to beat West Ham United 3-2 at Stamford Bridge, London on Jan 31 in their second comeback in four days under Liam Rosenior, Chelsea coach.
- With regular starters on the bench, Rosenior rotated heavily after the Napoli win on Jan 28, and Chelsea's careless first half allowed West Ham to take early control.
- At the break Rosenior introduced three substitutes including João Pedro and Marc Cucurella, who scored in the 57th and 70th minutes to pull Chelsea level after Jarrod Bowen and Crysencio Summerville had put West Ham ahead.
- Chelsea will occupy a Champions League spot provisionally as they sit fourth, two points ahead of Manchester United, while a late melee led to West Ham centre-back Jean-Clair Todibo’s red card, deepening West Ham United's relegation struggle.
- Enzo Fernández, celebrating his 150th Chelsea appearance, played a commanding role while Chelsea generated 2.551 xG after the restart, highlighting resilience despite defensive concerns.
