Doesn’t deserve to be a captain" "Unprofessionalism at its peak" - Chelsea fans call out star for incident in 2-1 Brighton win.

-


Chelsea fans on X have blasted Reece James after he was sent off in their 2-1 win against Brighton & Hove Albion. The two sides faced each other in the Premier League at the Falmer Stadium on Wednesday, May 15.

The Blues got off to a bright start and won a penalty in the 17th minute after Marc Cucurella was brought down inside the box by Facundo Buonanotte. However, the spot-kick was ruled out after the referee re-checked on the monitor following a VAR check.

However, Chelsea weren't to be denied in the 34th minute as Cole Palmer unleashed a stunning header from Cucurella's cross to break the deadlock. Christopher Nkunku made a successful return from injury, neatly finishing from Malo Gusto's excellent cross to make it 2-0 in the 64th minute.

Chelsea's night was hampered in the 88th minute when Reece James was given a straight red card for maliciously kicking out at Joao Pedro. Brighton pulled one back through Danny Welbeck, seven minutes into stoppage time, but the Blues held on to their lead to secure all three points.

James' foul and subsequent dismissal nearly allowed the Seagulls to pull off a daring comeback. He came on as a second-half substitute in the 69th minute replacing Gusto but couldn't positively impact the game. Due to his straight red card, he is now set to miss four league games, including the first three next season.
