Brighton were the better team but handed Chelsea a penalty and missed the chances they made. For Chelsea, Timo Werner looked extremely sharp.

Werner nails Webster on the outside, has a look, and from an acute angle goes for goal, his shot beaten away by Ryan at his near post, for a corner that comes to nothing.
45+2'
Good cross stood up by Lamptey, but James eases Maupay out of it.
45+1'
There'll be four added minutes.

Connolly replaces Lallana. I imagine he'll go up front with Maupay and Trossard will drop into the hole.
44''
Oh dear, that didn't take long. Lallana is down, rolling his socks to reveal an extremely strapped left shin. On the touchline, Connolly prepares himself.
42'
Another counter for Chelsea, Loftus-Cheek taking the ball off Werner, who streaks past him awaiting a return. But yerman hangs on too long and can't find the pass when he needs it at the last moment.
41'
I guess I should be used to it, but this game is curiously slow and insubstantial.
39'
Chelsea could use a winger. They're not creating much out wide.
38'
Havertz cleverly rides a challenge from Bissouma and feeds James, but his cross is aimless.
36'
Nice from Brighton, Alzate into Lallana who plays Maupay in! But his second touch is into traffic and he can't barge past enough challenges to force a shooting lane.

Alzate, in search of redemption, picks up a loose ball and drives into the shooting angle, leathering a low one that Kepa dives to shove away.
34'
Chelsea have created so little; Graham Potter must be fuming that him team are behind.
33'
For which Kepa comes, missing with a tame punch, Luckily for him, there's no one on the back stick to profit.
32'
Lamptey megs Alonso then wins a corner off Jorginho.
30'
Zouma treads on Maupay a right sair yin. There'll be another break while he clutches himself.
29'
Looking again at the goal, I wonder if Ryan needed to sell himself as he did. He made it really easy for Werner, not just offering but proffering a leg. He could've stood up and made a tricky finish difficult.
27'
Lamptey takes an arm in the face, so there's a break while he recovers.
