0-3 defeat! The fourth-last place in the Premier League suffered a heavy blow: the boss left the table, the fans left the stadium, and the coach was dismissed.

On October 18, in the 8th round of the Premier League, Nottingham Forest faced Chelsea at home. Chelsea beat Forest 3-0 and won their second consecutive Premier League victory. For Nottingham Forest, this 0-3 game is likely to mean the dismissal of coach Postkoglu. The fans left the game early, the boss left the table angrily, and Apo's dismissal was almost certain.

In the first 7 rounds of the Premier League, Chelsea scored 11 points and ranked 7th. Nottingham Forest only scored 5 points and ranked 17th. In this game, Chelsea lined up a frontcourt quartet of Joao Pedro, Ganaccio, Neto, and Andre Santos, with Reece James as a defensive midfielder.

Nottingham Forest, playing at home, had many opportunities. Only 2 minutes into the game, Awoniyi's push shot went slightly wide. In the 19th minute, Chelsea made a mistake in the backcourt and Gibbs-White's shot missed the goal frame.

In the first half, the two teams drew a goalless draw 0-0. Overall, the scene was not exciting. Nottingham Forest had more chances, but Gibbs-White failed to capitalize. Chelsea's defense made constant mistakes, and Gusteau's performance was also quite sluggish.

After the change of sides, Chelsea made three substitutions in a row, with Caicedo, Gitens and Giou coming on as substitutes. After the adjustment, Chelsea began to show off its power:

In the 49th minute, Neto ran at high speed from the left and immediately sent in a cross. 19-year-old Achang Pang jumped high and succeeded with a header. Chelsea led 1-0!

In the 52nd minute, Chelsea's free kick was taken by Reece James. Neto volleyed with his left foot. The ball bounced off the ground and then went into the net. Chelsea 2-0!

In just 3 minutes, Chelsea scored 2 goals in a row. Achangpang scored the first goal of his Chelsea career, while Neto had 1 goal and 1 assist.

Chelsea looked like two different teams in the first and second half. Caicedo's appearance changed the face of Chelsea. Caicedo can distribute the ball and control the rhythm. Chelsea's offense and defense have a core and they can play more methodically.

Trailing 0-2, Nottingham Forest owner and Greek tycoon Marinakis left the box. Previously, media broke the news that if Nottingham Forest loses again, the 60-year-old Postkoglu may be fired.

In the 74th minute, Nottingham Forest made two substitutions, with Zinchenko and Murillo coming on the scene. Nottingham Forest has many opportunities, but their ability to seize them is mediocre. In the 77th minute, Chelsea replaced 18-year-old Esteban, replacing Neto, who had 1 goal and 1 assist in the game. Neto left the field and Chelsea fans gave him a standing ovation.

When Wangzi came on the stage, he handed a piece of paper to Reece James and circulated it to the whole team to implement the coach's tactical deployment.

In the 84th minute, Chelsea sealed the victory:

This was Chelsea's corner kick. Esteban passed the ball. Nottingham Forest goalkeeper Sayers hit the ball out. Reece James scored with a powerful shot. Chelsea 3-0!

Trailing 0-3, Ao Bo froze on the spot with a grim look on his face. He knew full well that this defeat could mean dismissal. A large number of Nottingham Forest fans left the stadium early in silent protest.

In the 87th minute, Gusteau was sent off after two yellows and one red. In the end, Chelsea defeated Nottingham Forest 3-0 and won their second consecutive Premier League victory.
