Page 3 - Premier League 2018-19, West Ham United 0 - 0 Chelsea: 3 points of discussion from the match

#1 Winning streak ends for the Sarri

Hazard and co. failed to find the back of the net

It was a disappointing day at the office for Sarri and his team. Chelsea had more passes and more possession of the ball, but the final penetration was lacking entirely. Hat-trick hero, Eden Hazard didn't look sharp at all.

After winning their opening five games, Chelsea was looking for their sixth win on the trot which would have been the first time that two teams have maintained a 100 percent start to the Premier League.

But West Ham had other plans, and they defended brilliantly to stop Chelsea from scoring. It leaves Liverpool as the sole leaders after six weeks of Premier League football who will face Chelsea in their next encounter.

About the author

A sports enthusiast and an avid follower of football.

Since childhood I was encouraged to play cricket and in no time it became a hobby. Gradually I found interest in other sports also.

Football is in my blood and I love the electrifying ambiance that surrounds it. I often watch the pre and post match analysis of a match and try to learn how to analyze a football game.

The thing that intrigues me the most is that there are so many things happening behind the scenes that are oblivious to our naked eyes. The technological advancements that has been made are phenomenal.

I like analyzing a game from a statistical point of view. Being a data guy myself , I am firm believer of providing insights through facts and data. Though a game is always unpredictable , analyzing it from different dimensions can provide some very interesting conclusions.
