Madueke rescues Chelsea from humiliating derby against Crystal Palace, after Jackson’s stinker

Noni Madueke rescued a 2-1 victory for Chelsea over Crystal Palace with a late penalty, after several missed opportunities by the Blues.

Chelsea initially took the lead through Mykhailo Mudryk’s tap-in, but Palace quickly responded with a goal from Michael Olise.

The turning point came when Madueke, who came on as a substitute, won and converted a penalty in the 90th minute, securing three crucial points for Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

While Chelsea celebrated the win, forward Nicolas Jackson had a mixed performance, missing several opportunities that could have secured the game earlier.

The forward had a minute to forget when he missed a chance at point blank against Crystal Palace goalkeeper Dean Henderson, and later had one disallowed for offside.

Despite having only the goalkeeper to beat, Jackson’s attempt went wide, drawing jeers from the away fans at Stamford Bridge.
