Tоdd Bоehly аnd Behdаd Eghbаli cоuld hаve been fоrgiven fоr believing thаt everything wоuld be аlright frоm their luxuriоus seаts.

Jackson’s impudent flick to start things off wasn’t the greatest attempt in a helter-skelter game, though. Mykhailo Mudryk, who cost £89 million, came off the bench to secure the points with a brilliant single performance that had Mauricio Pochettino—who has been under a great deal of pressure—jumping for glee. Without a doubt, Mudryk earned that honor.

Newcastle, who lost out on a chance to move up to seventh place due to yet another reckless outing, could only ogle Mudryk’s dribbling. Although the Ukrainian’s transition from Shakhtar Donetsk has not been smooth, this served as a welcome reminder of his explosive skill. When Roberto De Zerbi suggested Mudryk for the Ballon d’Or one day, maybe he had a point. And maybe Chelsea isn’t nearly as broken as they have seemed at times this season, despite all the questions around a recruitment model that has them in 11th place.

Nonetheless, Chelsea’s handling of Newcastle had to have impressed Boehly and Eghbali. For the first time since December, Marc Cucurella, starting at left-back, engaged in combat. Anthony Gordon was quickly engaged by Malo Gusto, and Chelsea quickly discovered gaps in the Newcastle defense, which has allowed the second-most goals away from home this year.

Eddie Howe was baffled by the opening goal. The move was began by Palmer’s excellent pass, but Newcastle’s defense let them down. Gusto’s cross was cleared by Sven Botman to Palmer, who missed the mark with his effort until Jackson deflected it beyond Martin Dubravka.

Howe stated, “Things went wrong with the goals we conceded,” but he disregarded arguments that his strategies needed improvement. “I don’t think I have to adjust anything I’m saying to the guys. I don’t believe our approach was flawed in any way. The FA Cup is now our first objective.

For a while Chelsea just cruised. Palmer was full of ideas and eager to make an impression on Gareth Southgate. Conor Gallagher and Enzo Fernández were nimble midfield players. Three days before Southgate announces his England selection, Gordon hobbled off with a knee problem, raising concerns for Newcastle and prompting Jackson to pull off another save from Dubravka.

Chelsea, though, continues to make the same error. They were pinned back when Trevoh Chalobah left the defense, Gusto mishandled the ball, and Fernández made an audacious pass. They are not capable of maintaining attention for ninety minutes. Taking charge, Bruno Guimarães found Alexander Isak, who expertly curved a shot beyond Djordje Petrovic.

Following the equalizer, there was a furious period of play in which Jackson had a goal disallowed, Dubravka denied Raheem Sterling, and Joe Willock came close to giving Newcastle the lead. With both defenses looking weak, the game was wide open, and Petrovic made a great save against Miguel Almirón after the break.

The administration of Chelsea’s games was tested. Axel Disasi put Willock under a significant challenge. After Jackson broke in the 76th minute, Newcastle’s impetus faded despite Tino Livramento’s shot being blocked. Mudryk took over after he discovered Gallagher. He was able to squeeze the ball over the line by going past Dubravka and Fabian Schär thanks to his fast feet and balance.

The one drawback for Chelsea was that Jacob Murphy’s incredible goal set for a nervous end. Still, Pochettino thought there could be more.
