Premier League: Christian Pulisic scores a 90th-minute winner at Stamford Bridge
Chelsea leave it late to beat West Ham, with Pulisic popping up in the 90th minute to score the winning goal to clinch a 1-0 victory. It looked like it would end goalless, after Jorginho saw his poor penalty saved by Fabianski just a couple of minutes earlier, which also resulted in a straight red card for Dawson for denying Lukaku a goalscoring opportunity.
West Ham had defended well throughout, but there wasn’t enough time left on the clock for them to get an equaliser.
Thomas Tuchel’s team had lost their previous two home matches in the league and that poor form looked set to continue when Jorginho’s awful 87th-minute penalty was saved.

Yet West Ham had been reduced to 10 men when Craig Dawson fouled Romelu Lukaku for that spot-kick, and Chelsea made their numerical advantage count in the final minute of normal time.
Pulisic was the hero, slotting in from Marcos Alonso’s cross to get Chelsea back to winning ways at home.
