From Hope to Heartbreak: Chelsea’s European Dream Crashes After Forest Reality Check
Chelsea chance of making it to European competition now lies on winning the fa cup final against Manchester City. Their hope of making to top 7 was dented by Nottingham forest this evening as they beat Chelsea 1:3 to shattered their hope of making it to Europe next season. As a Chelsea fan, the result come as a shock to me. But that's why football can be funny and unpredictable.

Despite Chelsea dominate possession, have 21 shots with only 5 shots on target campared to Nottingham Forest that have 6 shots in total with 4 shots on target.
This shows that not numbers of shots win you match but it's about how clinical you're and that's what Nottingham Forest shown in today's game. With Chelsea bossing possession, this shows possession doesn't win you match but goals does. And that's what Chelsea is completely lacking right now. No composure, not clinical enough.
Nottingham mean the business as the took early goal courtesy of Taiwo Awoniyi in 2nd minutes of the game before Igor Jesus added the second goal from the spot kick in 15th minute.
The chance of Chelsea coming back to the game was threw away as Cole Palmer missed from the spot kick at the minutes of the first half.
Chelsea continue with their possession dominant in the second half but couldn't find a way through Nottingham Forest wall. Awoniyi added another goal in the 52nd minute of the game and totally blew away Chelsea confidence.
Chelsea later find a consolation goal at the last minute of the second half by Joao Pedro and the game ended 1:3 in favour of Nottingham Forest to boost their relegation battle survival.
Chelsea now sit at 9th position on the premier league table with 48 points with just three games to go. In fact, this is shame and a fail season as well. I'm pained🥲.
