LONDON (Reuters) -For the second time in a week, Chelsea found themselves playing on Saturday with 10 men after a red card - and once again they failed to cope.
Coach Enzo Maresca's men were 1-0 up at home against Brighton & Hove Albion - having dominated the first half - when Trevoh Chalobah was sent off in the 53rd minute for tripping Diego Gomez as he bore down on goal.
