Moses’ assist keeps Chelsea’s UCL hopes alive
Chelsea’s Champions League hopes are still alive. Thanks to Olivier Giroud’s first-half header from Victor Moses’s brilliant assist in the 32nd minute. The match ended 1-0 at the Stamford Bridge.
The Nigerian had the ball on the right, cuts back onto his left foot, drifts a cross in and there is Giroud – from a standing start – to win the header against Lovren and flick it into the far corner.
It was a very good finish and a potentially crucial goal for Chelsea to see off a jaded Liverpool side and move them to within three points of their opponents today with a game in hand, and just two behind Tottenham.
