Levi on Sterling scoring the freekick
Chelsea defender Levi Colwill shared that the whole team got scolded by an upset MauricioPochettino, known as the “hairdryer treatment,” following a poor firsthalf performance againstPreston North End. The Premier League team struggled aand couldn’t score against theChampionship side’s defense.In the second half, Pochettino’s team played much betterand eased any worries. Armando Brojascored first with a great header from Malo Gusto’s cross. In thesecond half, Thiago Silva, whocame in as a substitute, scored with a free header from Cole Palmer’s corner, making it 2-0 forChelsea. Raheem Sterling beautifully converted a free kick thatCole Palmer earned in the 69thminute. Enzo Fernandez scored the fourth goal in the 85th minute, completing the big win.“Something like that! I think we needed it though, we weren’t good enough, as everyone saw. The second half was much better. Raheem [Sterling] normally practtices free-kicks the day before agame and he always scores. I think he’s scored two now – Newcastle and then today – so fromthat position, he’s a specialist at free-kicks,” he said.”
