CHELSEA fans were in meltdown after conceding TWO own goals against Ajax at Stamford Bridge.
The Blues got off to a nightmare start just two minutes into the game after inform striker Tammy Abraham deflected a free-kick into his own net.
But Chelsea were level just two minutes later after Christian Pulisic won a penalty, which was converted by Jorginho.
After some sloppy defending by Cesar Azpilicueta Ajax again took the lead through Quincy Promes, who snuck round the Blues full-back to head home.
And with Frank Lampard’s men trailing, Macros Alonso gave away a cheap free-kick on the byline.
Hakim Ziyech swung in an effort from the right wing and curled it into the top left corner, sailing over an outstretched Kepa Arrizabalaga.
The free-kick hit the post, rebounded off Kepa’s FACE, and went into the net putting Ajax two goals to the good.
Blues fans couldn’t believe their luck after Abraham’s boot and Kepa’s face gifted the away side two goals.
One said: “Two own goals!? I’m out.”
Another said: “Chelsea scored 3 goals in the first half. Two of them were own goals. Such an embarrassment.”
One added: “How can you score two own goals in one half of football?”
How can you score two own goals in one half of football?
