A ball kept for too long after a back pass from a teammate, then lost following a clumsy dribble… Edouard Mendy conceded a goal after a huge error against Leeds striker Brenden Aaronson (33rd), this Sunday.
Chelsea did not get up after this ball from the former Rennes goalkeeper, yet one of the best goalkeepers in the world, and conceded two goals without being able to respond, signed Rodrigo (37th) and Jack Harrison (69th).

To top off a rotten afternoon, former Naples defender Kalidou Koulibaly, a Senegalese international like Mendy, took a red card for two yellows at the end of the game (84th).
