He had just been named as Sky Sports' Man of the Match. BEN WHITE BRINGS DOWN CALLUM HUDSON-ODOI! IT'S A SECOND YELLOW CARD FOR THE DEFENDER! CHELSEA 0-0 BRIGHTON 90. Thinking he has a corner coming his way, Werner allows the ball to roll out of play only to react in disbelief when a goalkick is awarded. It kind of sums up Chelsea's collective performance tonight. Football fans won. Liverpool Football Club can confirm that our involvement in proposed plans to form a European Super League has been discontinued. — Liverpool FC (@LFC) April 20, 2021 We can confirm that we have formally commenced procedures to withdraw from the group developing proposals for a European Super League (ESL). #THFC ⚪️ #COYS— Tottenham Hotspur (@SpursOfficial) April 20, 2021 We will not be participating in the European Super League. #MUFC— Manchester United (@ManUtd) April 20, 2021 As a result of listening to you and the wider football community over recent days we are withdrawing from the proposed Super League. We made a mistake, and we apologise for it. The news had broken across a night that started with fierce protests from Chelsea supporters outside of Stamford Bridge ahead of their home game with Brighton. With the team unable to make it through the crowds, the Chelsea board took note and began the process of pulling out. It set the dominos tumbling, and soon others followed suit. To a backdrop of fan power outside the ground, Chelsea and Brighton then played out a dreary goalless draw inside an empty stadium. Their protests in opposition to their club's decision to join a European Super League, be it directly or indirectly, led to the news that Chelsea are formally withdrawing from the project. CHAMPIONS LEAGUE CHARGE It's widely believed that Chelsea have formally begun procedures to withdraw from the Super League, and an official statement is expected from the club tomorrow. And so it's back to competitive football, and the race for a place in the top four to seal Champions League football. A point this evening has moved the Blues above West Ham and into fourth, but it's getting very tight at the top. Only three points separate Leicester in third and Liverpool in sixth, while a win for Everton in their game in hand will have them back in the mix. FIGHT FOR SURVIVAL A dreary game, but an excellent point for Brighton in their battle to avoid the drop. The draw takes Brighton seven points clear of Fulham while still holding a game in hand over the 18th-placed Cottagers. The Seagulls travel to Sheffield United at the weekend. FT: CHELSEA 0-0 BRIGHTON The football took a back seat to developments off the pitch this evening which is just as well because this game was a washout. The best chances fell to the visitors late on as a result of Chelsea carelessness, but Adam Lallana was off target while Danny Welbeck clattered the post. Chelsea vs Brighton SPECIAL OFFER: Get £20 risk free bet GOODBYE It's over. As another dramatic day comes to an end so too does the nightmare that football fans have been staring down for the past 48 hours. The proposed European Super League due to feature six of England's richest clubs is poised for the scrapheap following the withdrawal of its Premier League components. Even Tottenham, currently five points off the pace are not out of the running now they are free of Jose Mourinho's shackles. SANCHEZ'S SAFE HANDS Another clean sheet for Robert Sanchez means that the Brighton goalkeeper has now kept nine in his first 21 Premier League appearances. His 43% clean sheet ratio is the best of any other Brighton goalkeeper to have played in the competition, and almost double that of Mat Ryan (22%) and David Button (25%). FULL TIME STATS Chelsea seven shots against Brighton were their lowest they have managed in a Premier League game since Thomas Tuchel took charge. 87. Brighton opt to to remove a forward for the final moments. Danny Welbeck goes off, and Jakub Moder, a young defensive midfielder from Poland, is on in his place. 85. There's always an inevitability when Giroud comes on in a game like this that he is going to be the player to end the resolve of a determined team from lower down the table. A fine defensive performance from Brighton's Ben White was marred in stoppage time as he picked up a second yellow card for fouling Callum Hudson-Odoi. PEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP! THE FINAL WHISTLE GOES! CHELSEA 0-0 BRIGHTON 90+3. From the subsequent free-kick, Hudson-Odoi's cross is headed tamely at Sanchez. That will be that. CHELSEA 0-0 BRIGHTON 90+2. In the second minute of three added on, Brighton are reduced to ten men. Chelsea finally show some pace on the counter-attack, and when Callum Hudson-Odoi attempted to skip back inside Ben White, the defender brought him crashing to the ground. That is what football is about - the underdogs. We were outstanding and should have taken three points. Together we are stronger. It is great to see everyone coming together as one. We want games like this to have meaning. Adam LallanaSky Sports "He leads all the captains and the football club. "Adam Lallana praises Jordan Henderson's leadership and 'all the football clubs' for coming together to 'hopefully put the Super League to bed'. pic. twitter. com/xiNS8gmosR— Sky Sports Premier League (@SkySportsPL) April 20, 2021 FAN POWER Few impressed in Chelsea blue during the match this evening, but their fans certainly made their mark prior to kick-off.
