Frank Lampard’s highly-anticipated return to Chelsea suffered a setback as his team succumbed to a 1-0 defeat against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux Stadium. The Blues had a poor start to the game, and their performance did not improve as the match progressed. Matheus Nunes’s stunning first-half volley was enough to secure Wolves’ safety away from the relegation zone.
This defeat has pushed Chelsea further down the Premier League table, with the team currently sitting in the bottom half, nine points behind the tie’s victors. The team has struggled for form in recent weeks, and Lampard will need to work on turning things around quickly if they are to stand a chance of securing a European place.
However, Chelsea has an opportunity to bounce back when they take on Spanish giants Real Madrid in the Champions League on Wednesday. The team will be hoping to put in a much-improved performance and secure a positive result.
In another match, Tottenham secured a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Brighton. The game saw Son Heung Min reach a significant milestone, as he scored his 100th Premier League goal. Harry Kane also added to his tally, while Danny Welbeck netted for the Seagulls.
