Chelsea bounced back from a five-game winless streak with a 3-1 victory over relegation-threatened Wolves on Monday. The win catapulted Chelsea back into the Premier League’s top four, reviving their hopes of qualifying for next season’s Champions League.
Chelsea dominated possession early on, with top-scorer Cole Palmer starting despite initial doubts over his fitness. The home side took the lead midway through the first half, thanks to Tosin Adarabioyo’s first Premier League goal for the club.
However, Wolves equalized just before halftime, capitalizing on a howler from Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez. Sanchez dropped the ball under pressure, allowing Matt Doherty to score from close range.
Chelsea regained control in the second half, with goals from Marc Cucurella and Noni Madueke securing the victory. The win marks a crucial turning point for Chelsea, who had lost their way after a strong start to the season.
