Chelsea received yet another red card during the 2-1 Premier League win over Liverpool at Stamford Bridge on Saturday evening.

The Blues registered a statement victory over the Reds at home. Moises Caicedo opened the scoring with a sublime strike from outside the box.

Cody Gakpo levelled the scores after the hour mark, but Chelsea pushed for the winner and eventually scored through Estevao in 95th minute.

Blues manager Enzo Maresca joined in the celebrations at the corner flag. It has come at a price with the Italian suspended for the next game.

Maresca was already booked in the opening half of the contest for complaining about a foul on Alejandro Garnacho in the Reds’ box.

He was handed his second yellow card for a wild run down the touchline to embrace Chelsea fans. Maresca won’t be overly disappointed.

Chelsea provided a perfect response after three winless league games. Their result has put Arsenal top of the league after seven matches played.
