MORE EXCITEMENT FROM LAST NIGHT, THIS TIME FROM THE UEFA CONFERENCE LEAGUE INCLUDED THIS ‘GOALATHON’ BETWEEN PANATHINAIKOS VS CHELSEA, WHERE CHELSEA’S JOAO FELIX MADE HIS MARK ON THE MATCH WITH A BRILLIANT BRACE, WITH HIS FIRST GOAL COMING AT JUST 22 MINS., FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER FROM HIS TEAM-MATE MYKHAILO MUDRYK AT 48 MINS., AND THEN THE OTHER-HALF OF FELIX’S BRACE FOLLOWED SHORTLY AFTERWARDS AT 55 MINS., FOLLOWED BY A CRACKER FROM A PENALTY FROM CHRISTOPHER NKUNKU AT 59 MINS! THEN IT WAS OVER TO PANATHINAIKOS’S FACUNDO PELLISTRI TO SCORE AT 69 MINS., MEANING THAT THIS EXCITING GAME ENDED IN A 4 – 1 WIN TO CHELSEA! THERE WERE OVER 1,000 PASSES BETWEEN THE 2 TEAMS DURING THE MATCH, WITH PANATHINAIKOS HAVING AN 84% PASS ACCURACY, AND CHELSEA 92%. WITH 1 YELLOW-CARD-A-PIECE. SO, FULL OF ACTION!
