Chelsea vs real Madrid
Transcript
00:00So the countdown is on, and it will be Chelsea to kick off.
00:14Real Madrid and Chelsea, frequent foes in the UEFA Champions League,
00:19locking horns on a friendlier basis tonight,
00:23here at Charlotte, North Carolina, to take this for Chelsea.
00:31Courtois, putting a bunch on it, a routine bunch,
00:36but all was said and done, good in Courtois.
00:39James.
00:41Did a good job, Colwell as well.
00:43Wilkinson was hung out to dry to an extent.
00:47Vinicius in the neighbourhood.
00:50And there's Levi Colwell.
00:55Attempting to switch it.
00:58Here we have Vinicius able to work his magic.
01:04Real Madrid support Vinicius Junior.
01:09Trying to set something up again.
01:12Lucas Vazquez making that thrusting run to the penalty area.
01:21It's good play down this left-hand side.
01:25Ejection of pace with the running of the ball.
01:29Nicely done that right-hand side, they have the overload.
01:32And the pass across for Lucas Vazquez wasn't quite good enough.
01:42Raging, not too far from here, we did wonder if it might have an impact.
01:47Rodrigo this time, turn on the style.
01:51And, oh, that was selfless.
01:54And it might end up being a goal, it is!
01:59And there's the finishing touch of pride, Dani Savaias.
02:02Right at the end of the move.
02:06It had been threatening to arrive.
02:10And Real Madrid in front as they look for their first victory on tour.
02:15It's the last game here in the United States.
02:19It's a lovely ball played.
02:21In the middle here.
02:24This pass for Brahim Diaz.
02:26He's in behind, he doesn't make the most of the situation to start with.
02:29Vinicius Junior makes a run for him, runs offside.
02:34Savaias was onside when the ball was played.
02:37He was in the right place at the right time.
02:39There's the big overload.
02:41The pass didn't have enough weight on it, so Lucas Vazquez took a touch.
02:45He got a bit lucky, but...
02:48At times, Real Madrid are opening up Chelsea far too easily here.
02:53That was Vazquez, and then Savaias claiming it.
03:00Let's see if he got the touch, maybe he didn't have the arm up.
03:03Coming into the move, Rodrigo to pull it back,
03:06but waiting there for Chelsea was Lavia.
03:10And Nkunku, and that's what he's capable of.
03:14Christopher Nkunku.
03:16Raheem Sterling.
03:18He took it overly wide, didn't have the angle in the end.
03:23And now...
03:26Mili Teo and company snuffing out the danger.
03:30This is a reckless challenge here for Rodrigo.
03:33Oh, dear, dear, dear.
03:36And then Nkunku plays the next one.
03:38Mili Teo, the chase holds off.
03:40That's good defending from Mili Teo, not great play from Sterling.
03:51The only team to defeat by Leverkusen last year.
03:54Yes, they were. Benítez Jr., great idea.
03:57Jürgensen had given it himself, and that's a fantastic goal.
04:00That is brilliant, whatever way you slice it.
04:03And Brahim Diaz on the doorstep.
04:08But still with a tremendous amount to do.
04:11My goodness.
04:13And Madrid rings out over the stadium here at Charlotte.
04:18Great moment for Brahim Diaz.
04:21Great pass as well.
04:23Outside of the boot.
04:25It's probably just onside.
04:27Again, Chelsea called out at the back.
04:29It's far too easy for Brahim Diaz to make the run.
04:32Jürgensen...
04:35Comes to ground, can't get there.
04:38It's a wonderful finish.
04:40Chelsea's back four, back defensive line.
04:43Just aren't reading the danger.
04:45They've been all over the place.
04:46Badia's shield, can't will.
04:49Gusto's pushed into midfield at times.
04:51Chelsea have got problems here as we go to a calling break.
04:55Gusto, Sterling, good timing!
04:58The timing at the end wasn't good enough with regard to the connection with Nkunku.
05:03He was waiting at the centre.
05:06Just needed a better pass.
05:09Great return ball.
05:11Comes out to Sterling for the switcher plate.
05:16It's Gusto that plays him back.
05:18It's a good pass as well and Nkunku coming in at the far post.
05:21I'd say it's a fairly easy pass for Sterling.
05:25Obviously with Rayo Vallecano.
05:27They originally came through the Real Madrid youth ranks.
05:34Sterling.
05:38To lay that one back.
05:41There's in there!
05:42And that's more like it from a Chelsea point of view.
05:45Badia, Maduega, has Paul run back.
05:49Chelsea run the scoresheet.
05:52And Gautam, beaten.
05:55Technically constructive.
05:57Yeah, good ball into the box.
06:00That may be the weakness of Frank Gaudier at the far post.
06:03He's a really small player but Maduega really does attack the ball here.
06:08I'm sure that Thibaut Courtois covered himself in glory.
06:12That may be slightly unfair to him.
06:14Here's the ball to the far post.
06:16Just lofted up.
06:17He starts to come.
06:18Thibaut Courtois stops.
06:20Garcia looks at the goalkeeper.
06:22Maduega does everything right.
06:24Attacks the ball, heads it back from where it came from.
06:27Chelsea back in the game and they needed that.
06:32Early leap.
06:33Garcia's got to jump.
06:35This poor defender.
06:38Gautam, who started to come.
06:40Too close to it and then couldn't have any time to make the save.
06:44Movement.
06:45Rahim Diaz from deep.
06:47Here's James and Sterling.
06:49He's taken up that position at the centre.
06:51For Chelsea.
06:53And a good goal!
06:54And there's Loonan.
06:55Immediately called into action.
06:58And a very important piece of goalkeeping from Andriy Loonan.
07:02We're talking about Chelsea being out of shape defensively.
07:05Here, Real Madrid are all over the place.
07:07Here's a good forward pass.
07:09Good run from Rahim Sterling.
07:11They had a big overload on this side.
07:13And Itao was pushed into midfield.
07:14He had to try and get back.
07:17Here's the supporting player for Real Madrid.
07:20Vasquez was trying out for it to be played to him.
07:23Now he's looking a bit lost.
07:25Because Hudrik is on the charge here for Chelsea.
07:29Oh, he's wasted the opportunity.
07:36As we approach the final ten minutes.
07:43Let's see if Chelsea can get themselves onto the front foot.
07:46And Hudrik in hot pursuit of this one.
07:49Using his pace.
07:50That pace that you mentioned earlier, Stuart.
07:54And a corner this time.
07:56We've seen the pass from Nkunku.
07:58And the corner.
08:00Short and Hudrik.
08:03For grabs.
08:08He's good enough to sort things out.
08:11Here's take six.
08:14Trying to get the accurate header in.
08:18We've had La Tassa leading the line.
08:23Trying to make an impact as a substitute.
08:26Maybe Schur marking on the wrong side.
08:27La Tassa with the header.
08:29He could have done better there.
08:39We'll have to find out exactly.
08:42How much added time there will be.
08:44If indeed there is any added time at all.
08:47Remember the two scores will be heading for the airport immediately after this game.
08:52And I think that was pretty sensible by referee Guido Gonzalez.
08:57To call a halt to the proceedings.
09:00Real Madrid get their first win on tour here in the United States.
09:06Another defeat for Chelsea.
09:08The results haven't been great.
09:10There is certainly room for improvement.
09:13Ahead of the season.
09:16Nkunku pulling one back in the 39th minute.
