Three half-time changes did the trick to save Chelsea, with Wesley Fofana crossing for Joao Pedro to pull one back before Marc Cucurella’s header levelled things. Jean-Clair Todibo was dismissed as tempers boiled over in added time – a wild end to a thrilling game. After a fine covering tackle from Joe Rodon to deny Gyokeres, Leeds enjoyed another spell of possession and a fervent home crowd did their best to help them build some momentum. Bournemouth had to work hard for their third league victory in four which compounded basement side Wolves to a first home defeat in 2026. Everton move on to 34 points courtesy of the late drama, while Brighton remain three points below following a solitary victory from their last 11 league fixtures.
