21 min: Parejo is down, complaining that he’s copped one in the mush from Kovacic. Valencia surround the ref. There was a bit of contact, but it looked accidental enough. The referee isn’t interested.
19 min: Chelsea have been by far the better side. But they should be behind. Rodrigo is sent scampering into acres of space down the inside-right channel, the beneficiary of another exquisite Parejo pass. Chelsea’s defence are caught napping; they’re nowhere. Rodrigo rolls the ball across the face of goal towards Gomez, at the far post, six yards out. Gomes simply has to tap it in … Kepa’s been drawn out of position … but he takes a complete fresh-air swipe! That is absurd. Chelsea breathe again.
