Chelsea vs Liverpool: Player Ratings

Chelsea player ratings 

Edouard Mendy: did not let his guard down after conceding two goals, came back stronger and denied Salah and Mane. 7/10 

Trevoh Chalobah could have cleared the ball precisely, which lead to Liverpool’s opening goal. 5/10. 

Thiago Silva: Always stands his ground whatsoever and is never shaken by Liverpool’s high press. 6/10

Antonio Rudiger: Decent Performance. He likes playing forward, as he engaged in many forward runs. 6/10

Cesar Azpilicueta: Had a busy night today; made a few bad passes but somehow managed to keep Mane off the hook. 6/10

N’Golo Kante: What a great performance. His game reading is always clear-cut and ensured Henderson and Milner do not get much time on the ball. Also, set up Pulisic for Chelsea's second. Sportco's player ratings for Kante is 8/10

Mateo Kovacic: What a goal. It should be on the list of the goal of the season. Aside from that, he kept the midfield running. 7/10 

Marcos Alonso:  Not very effective today, failed to prevent Salah from scoring and missed a great chance too. 4/10

Mason Mount: He was not seen in the game; his form has massively dipped. 4/10 

Kai Havertz: Since scoring in the Champions League final, he has gone oblivion. 3/10

Christian Pulisic: Satisfactory performance and contributed to the equalizer with a stellar finish. 7/10

Substitute: Jorginho: 5/10, Callum Hudson-Odoi: 6/10 

Liverpool player ratings 

Caoimhín Kelleher: Stepped up in Alisson’s place and delivered acceptable performance, 7/10

Trent Alexander-Arnold: Kept working tirelessly and set up Salah with a perfect pass for Liverpool's second. 6/10

Virgil van Dijk: Did not have one of his best games and failed to read the danger of Pulisic’s goal. 5/10

Ibrahim Konate: Good distribution from the back, however, just like his defensive partner, van Dijk, Konate could have averted Pulisic's goal if only for better positioning. 6/10

Kostas Tsimikas: Great performance and hit the ground running with trademark switches, troubled Chelsea’s defenders with his crosses. 7/10

Jordan Henderson: Did not live up to expectations but got settled in the second half. 5/10 

Fabinho: Very slow and sluggish display, Kante got the better of him. 4/10

James Milner: Failed to make any big chance and was always messy with his rushed passing. 4/10

Mohamed Salah: Truly a big game player, sent Alonso back to Spain and then slotted the ball calmly past Mendy. 8/10 

Diogo Jota: Formed great tandem with Mane and forced a couple of openings. Was taken off in the 68th minute. 6/10
